The Pope followed us so everything was a little chaotic!! Not a particularly nice city but has a buzz about it. Apparently the population has grown by 20% in last 2 years with the problems in Venezuela.

Suffering a little from altitude sickness so left Montserrat out. Did not get into cathedral but watched the rehearsals for the pope's visit, interesting! (20C but sun strong and I got sunburnt) Even watched his arrival on TV later... The crowds reaction to him was frenzied!

Botero museum was brilliant could spend hours in. Museum d'oro was good also. La Candelaria we thought was overrated. Difficult to find your way around the streets.

Meals, taxis very cheap. We ate well for less than £14 in total, Inc beer etc.

Uber x you can get across town for £4....but you should uprate to the higher uber cars as we found car/driver poor. Hotel taxis were at £9 for same trip so not expensive.

Most cars here are very small and driving is a nightmare with the road conditions etc.

Had a snack in hotel bar which was OK but a bit chilly.
