Next stop on my agenda is Bogota, it is going to be a short one. I'm a little bored of big cities, so I try to minimize my time in them. I only stayed two nights. First evening I tried to get up to Monserrate mountain for sunset, but I was to late... Next try on next day ;) My first night in Bogota was really unspectacular, just walked around a bit.
Next day was a full day! I went with the bus to zipaquira, where I went to Salt Cathedral. It is really amazing, they build it in a former mine in the mountain. They believe it helps them to be save by their work. At the beginning you see 14 Station, it symbolize the different station of the cross along the suffering of Jesus.

I had a English tour with 4 other people and guess what, there where 2 other Germans. Germans everywhere :D
My time was limited, because I want to drive back to Bogota to see the Plaza de Bolivar and got up Monserrate for sunset.

Bogota was a quite stop and I did some cool things. But the next stop is going to be a real adventure. I got the tipp from my bro Bernd, so I checked it out and it looks really nice! Next stop Guadalupe in the middle of nowhere :)
