In three days we went from 150 feet above sea level at Mompox to 4340 feet here in Barichara. To get here, the bus went through Chicamocha Canyon. Breathtaking views, though not so easy to capture through the bus window. [Note that the three photos below were all taken by Sun-Ling. John was concentrating on looking straight out at the road the front of the bus in order to keep his breakfast down.]
