Colombia
2/5/2023
: We kicked off our trip to Colombia with an early morning hike to the top of Monserrate. Despite the very steep hill, there were literally thousands of people climbing up the stairs to the top, and quite a few more waiting for the Funicular. There were lots of snacks for sale on the way up, and we ate every one of them. After the hike, we headed over to La Candelaria for some more food.
