Barichara, Santander, Columbia 24-8-2010
Odometer: 13,549.6 miles
On our way out of Villa de Leyva we decided to continue on with the country lanes or secondary roads of Colombia and stay off the main routes with all the traffic. We cut through some great little towns, Toqui´, Chitaraqui, Vado Real and northward to Socorro, Sanqil, and finally into Barichara. The roads turned out to be fun as well as beautiful. Of course, about 15 miles into it, the country lane turned into a dirt road. We ran into some big traffic jams. I had time to catch one on film. We arrived in Barichara in time to have a late lunch, find a nice hostal and run around the town taking pictures like a bunch of tourists. There are no internet cafes, so the blogging had to wait another day.

Clem, on today´s menu….fish head soup. Delicious! One thing was strange, there was no head at the bottom of the bowel. You don´t think it was the crunchy thing I ate? Huh??
