We finally visited Salitre Magico...an amusement/fair type park in Bogota.I compare it to a fair because you have to buy a wristbands, & even that doesn't include all attractions, so you do have to buy individual tickets for rides too.
Avery & Edwin on the bumper cars
Isabella & Brook
Brook look very determined
Brook loved the swings
This was the funniest moment of the day for me...watching Isabella & Brook ride this. I have never seen this ride go so fast before & it was their first time to ride this type of ride.
Brook & I rode this, then rode it again with Avery, Isabella, & Edwin
Edwin, Brook, & Isabella
Avery, Isabella, & Edwin rode this drop ride. I watched Brook on the swings while they did this.
There is a huge ferris wheel we rode.
Great views of the mountains
We had a good view of the rides too
Some girls heard us speaking English & asked to do an interview for her school, although the questions were in Spanish.
Pirate Boat ride
Avery, Isabella, & Edwin were on this ride. Brook & I watched :)
Only Edwin rode this & we watched. It looked like a spacecraft to me.
When we exited the park, it was overwhelming, all these food vendors basically screaming at us to come buy their food. Transportation is always a challenge here, & it was another challenging, long,exhausting ride home. Edwin spent the night with us. We introduced him to cheddar cheese for the first time & I told him what a casserole is. I made Poppy Seed chicken Sunday & he ate biscuits Sunday morning. It was a good USA/Southern experience.
Valentine Day cards from my parents
Valentine biscuits (that I actually didn't make until Sunday morning since I was gone to my book study Saturday morning)
This is a picture of restroom door from a restaurant. This is when I'm thankful I have a basic knowledge of Spanish so I could properly choose which door to enter!
