I've been back just after the new year from about mid November I was in Colombia where it was 85 degrees every day whenext outside of Bogota it gets cooler there than the interror, coffee region and the coast. The photo on my profile is Cartagena is a view from the 8th floor of the condo I stayed at back in 2013. Colombia is a great country and a lot of fun. It gets a lot of stereotypes of course.....but the people as a whole are happy, if you exchange dollars it's not expensive and the women are gorgeous, and it has mountains, rainforests, deserts, the Pacific and Caribbean,, I love it there. plus only 4.5 hour flight from Houston direct
