Central Columbia Salento

Yesterday we flew into pereira and got a car up to the mountains to a town called Salento. It's an authentic Columbian town, tiny, but very aesthetic. The flight was good, despite the dogs on the plane barking. The main industry here is coffee and there are plantations surrounding the area. It's very green, tropical and warm. It's one of he prettier towns we have seen on this continent. Today we plan to hire some horses and go for a ride, or, maybe mountain bikes. There are heaps of scenic areas to ride into, and fast flowing rivers. The good thing is trout is big here on the menu, or trucha as it's called.

                                             The Main Street of Salento, siesta time.

                                                     The taxi jeeps here, love them.

                                               The main square in Salento, more taxi jeeps.
