This post is well worth the time and wait. Nico and I just got back from 2 weeks in Colombia. Needless to say, we had a fantabulous time. We captured most of what we did on camera....but what we couldn't capture with our camera, we definitly did with our hearts! I have put some pictures here on the blog but i've inserted links to the web albums...be sure to check them out. There are about 1000 pictures! Enjoy =)
Gracias a todos ustedes que compartieron con nosotros en este viaje tan inolvidable. Parece ser que entre mas tiempo pasa...mas me doy cuenta del tesoro que me regalaron mis padres: unas raizes bien sembradas en las tierras, potreros, y calles de Colombia...unas raizes que siempre me han mantenido firmemente anclada en la realidad, me han cultivado la pasión por la vida, me han nutrido el crecimiento, y me continúan inspirando cada día.
Como siempre...al llegar de Colombia me siento como si me estuviera levantando de un sueno del cual uno nunca quisiera despertar. Pero ahora que estoy aquí viendo las fotos que levemente pudieron capturar unos de los tantísimos momentos de felicidad que vivimos aya Nico y Yo...veo que no fue un sueno...sino una realidad que me siento muy afortunada de poder vivir...aunque solo sea por días, momentos, instantes!
Gracias, y mil veces gracias por la felicidad y paz que me regalaron en este viaje =)
Espero que nos veamos pronto!!!!!
BOGOTA: In Bogota we hung out with family and friends...especially la abuelita Chava. Nico was a little sick but fortunately sweat those fevers out so that we could set out on some adventures =).

Nico got his first 3 horse-back riding lessons! He was riding all by himself on Patas largas!
I had some time to draw...which I hadn't done in a while! It felt great to go at a blank sheet with some charcol!
I got to see a horse show at the Country Club, LA HACIENDA! I could not believe that I was drinking a refajo, eating a patacon, and watch horses jump right before my eyes on a beautiful sunny saturday afternoon!
Why? I went on 5 and 6 hour Cabalgatas, I saw the most spectacular mountain views, and star studded skies, For the first time in a very LONGGGGG time, I took deep breaths with out feeling like my heart was going to cave in. I was only doing ONE THING at a time...BUT the one thing that I have enjoyed doing most...for almost my ENTIRE EXISTANCE: Horse-back riding.
Don Mauricio lent me a beautiful Arabian Mare that had the softest most comfortable gallop ever!
Cartagena:
Because we were having such a great time in Bogota...and didn't want to leave, we almost missed out on the amazing/breathtaking mini trip that my uncled gifted us with to cartagena and the surrounding islands.
