Prime country for bugs and bitey things. Definitely a keep the footwear in the tent sort of place.

Some stunning views. Río Cauca looks to be in spate - or is it always in spate?

Are the intrigued locals Brahmans? They were about the third most common cattle type (after Herefords and Fresians) back home when I was a kid

Stalls along the road
Did you try a cholado? Not neccesarily from that whole row of stalls, but from anywhere in Colombia.
Town signs are often sponsored, usually with beer and can be miles from the town.
Not sure I want a beer smelling of coffee....or sardine fishermen....

And then the calmness of the early morning on the road.....
Is that snow on them thar hills?

 

[FrothNinja]

Those clouds
Is that snow on the Nudo de Almaguer? specifically Puracé?
This tree caught my eye
Prickly pear (well that's what I know it as) produces an edible fruit but its advisable to have pliers and a knive ready to de-spike it.

Ordinarily, I'd pish my pants
That view puts me in mind of upland areas or Scotland and Australia, lovely
But from up here
This one, less so, but still a pleasure for the eye

Sometimes the mist and light could weave some magic
Love shots like that. Usually get them at the beginning and the end of daylight
