Visiting Bogotá - flight to Frankfurt
Bogotá from Monserrate |
Well...the day before had left it's traces and we slept until 10 am I think. Since breakfast was included we went down to have breakfast. After that Chris went to the business centre to inform friends and employer and I tried to find out if there was any chance to get the best of this day. The concierge made a recommendation. She knew a taxi driver that could take us to the most important spots in Bogota. She only spoke Spanish but that was fine since I understand a lot. So I told Chris about it and he joined happily.
It was really amazing - we drove to Monserrat, to the historical centre, saw the president palace, the court and a lot of other important government buildings, had a nice traditional lunch and walked the university area. On our way back to the hotel we stopped briefly to buy some shirts. I had a feeling that we could need them for the flight back home. Once back in the hotel we got ready for our flight. We packed, got dressed (with shirts) and drove over to the airport. This time everything went fine and to keep the story short: We ended up being upgraded to business class and so the flight to Frankfurt was over in a blink of an eye.
