  misc. and politics
Starting with politics, yesterday saw one calm day of voting, and re-electing Uribe as President of Colombia. Papa Noel did not stand a chance.
Walking around the presidential palace on Saturday, we saw the polling station in Plaza de Bolívar, where Uribe would cast his own vote on Sunday morning. Check out Oriana's blog for news on the elections.

Plaza de Bolívar

Then a latte con arequipe... ahhhhhh. Pipe, JuanK and I will get a bucket full of arequipe for our flat, and re-create that dream. In case you wonder, arequipe is a kind of paste made from milk and sugar...

At dusk (which lasts about 5 and a half minutes), we went for a stroll around the modern art museum, with a great collection of Botero's chubby worldview. Tiro Fijo as a smily fat man in front of chubby trees and with a roundish gun.

So pure.

And I now own one third of a fridge.

... Arriving at each new city, the traveler finds again a past of his that he did not know he had: the foreigness of what you no longer are or no longer possess lies in wait for you in foreign, unpossessed places... (Italo Calvino)
