Another Colombian Holiday - Oh Darn!! Villa de Leyva



One of the perks of teaching at an international school is that we celebrate all Colombian holidays as well as American Thanksgiving. Since we had a four-day weekend last weekend we decided to go to a tiny town about 3 hours outside Bogota. Jenn, Tara and I flew to Bogota and then got on a bus, but my hat goes off to our other friends who took the curvy 12 hour bus ride from Cali. Can any of you imagine me on that bus ride? I would have to take a lot of drugs to survive that!!!

Villa de Leyva is a beautiful town and it even has a French Bakery (we ate there at least 2x a day)! We stayed at a cute bed and breakfast, went horseback riding, shopping and walking around town. We also brainstormed all details of a pipe dream about how we could open a school there.
