Just when our fun-o-meter hits empty, then we are in Ecuador!

We had a couple of rough afternoons, having difficulty finding hotels or our way through towns but the people of Ecuador have filled our fun-o-meter!

More photos and ramblings in Colombia

 Carl is saying let us go North so we can continue our journey South!

Colombia is in the bag!

I have found that keeping the blog up to date and riding all day is not working so good for me.  Either we stay at a hotel that does have internet but it is so slow I barely can get emails read and answered, or there is no internet or I am so blasted tired I would not make sense if I wrote anything.  Well, today we stopped early because Carl wants to do some preventive maintenance on the bikes and I thought I could get this thing caught up.  So here goes....

Who would have thought 2 hicks from Wyoming would be sitting in Bogota, Colombia?

We made it to Bogota this afternoon. What a beautiful city, surrounded by mountains and the weather is nice and cool and comfortable. After Panama's 90+ degrees today 60ish feels great. Only problem is neither one of us have a jacket or even a spare shirt with us. When we readied the bikes for shipping we packed as much on them as possible and that included our riding gear and liners, after all we are only going to apart for 24hours. But when we got to the shippers we found out it was going to be longer.... Oh well, back to the story.

Honduras to Panama City

We have not blogged since our border crossing into Honduras. The rest of our time in Honduras was uneventful. We pretty much just scooted through the country and the border crossing into Nicaragua was a snap. Jonnie did the paperwork and Carl sat and watched the bikes and read his Nook. The roads in Honduras were rough, many pot holes and many speed bumps, the dreaded topes have returned.
