I wanted to post this at about 1230pm today, but between exhaustion and some technological challenges it didn´t happen then.
Only 23 hours after we left home, we arrived at our hotel in Bogota – at about 7:00 this morning. Nothing like full overnight flights with a cranky and excited almost-3-year-old to make you feel like the worst parent on the plane because your child is just crying inexplicably and won’t stop.
To top it off, somewhere in the changing airlines, one suitcase didn’t make it all the way here with us. In the grand scheme of things, only 1 of 5 isn’t bad for the kind of travel day we had yesterday – but it’s the one with Julien’s clothes and my dress for the presentation tomorrow, Julien’s razor, and my toiletry kit. If it can’t be located in the next two hours, Julien will be off to find some new clothes for tomorrow. Luckily, I packed another dress in a different bag.
Mix lack of sleep with less oxygen (Bogota is at about 8500 feet altitude) and we are really looking forward to lunch and a nap. Esteban is already out – he fell asleep on the way to our favorite park. We took a little stroll around the neighborhood, remembering places we went last time we were here. Now we’re just waiting for lunch, which is served at the fashionable hour of 1:00pm.
