Down Time

After traveling for over 2 weeks and both battling health issues this week, we needed some down time today. So we went to hang out at the Santa Fe Mall, frequented by the upper class of Medellin. It could just as easily have been Pentagon City, except that most people we saw were NOT tourists.

While David went off in search of a short-sleeved shirt, I sat across from this pop-up store selling mostly plastic shoes and featuring a sign under the full red lips that said "Eat My Melissa." I don 't even want to think about what this means. 

Tomorrow we are going off-grid and slipping into the Amazon jungle, so we did things like get Colombian pesos and take care of online business today.  Hopefully we will resurface on Thursday with stories to tell about Las Amazonas. God forbid we have another health crisis, because otherwise we may be consulting a medicine man!
