| Eating at a road-side resturaunt! |
Today we went on an adventure! We traveled through scenic routes of Colombia by bus! As we rode the bus, we saw beautiful mountains, fields with cows, chickens, and skies as blue as the ocean. Our Colombian leaders kept raving about a hike that we just had to go on! As we road the bus the weather changed from hot to cold every 5 minutes and even a hint of rain! It's so interesting to see how Colombia has so many climates. One of the locals told me that it is here that you can experience each type of weather! Since we have been here I can say that that indeed is true! As we took a break for breakfast we got to experience some authentic local food! Coffee or "tinto" is the custom around here but I broke the mold and ventured out for some tea! It was a good decision! Filled with flavo

After breakfast, since the guys are totally opposed to "selfies" we snapped a shot of the fellas that are along for the ride with us! (Minus the Steve's)

After breakfast, and a few hours, we finally arrived to the long awaited hike that our leaders had been talking about! It was amazing! There were so many moments and feelings along the way! We had some who were afraid of heights and we had to cross over a very narrow passage way called "Angels Pass" on both sides of this pathway is a cliff. The photo below is us on the way to the scary walk way! The weather was hot enough that we all changed into shorts and t-shirts. On the bus ride we had on jackets and hats and here we are experiencing another climate all in a matter of moments!

Here is a panoramic shot of God's beautiful creation, and also the "Angels Pass"
As we walked across we were all praying that the Angels of the Lord would carry us on their wings. Once we got across and climbed down a few mountains the land opened up to waterfalls, rocks, and more scenic cliffs! The photos don't to justice to the things that we saw but we all marveled in the creation of the Lord! One member of the team kept exclaiming "how can anyone deny God after seeing things like this". I couldn't agree more! What a fun time we had today exploring the mountains of Colombia and the handiwork of our Creator.
