Mi Corazón Está en Bogotá

I was in Bogota, Colombia the past week for a business trip, had lots of lab dips to approve. Little did I realize that I would fall so in love with the city that I would cry in the airport the morning of my return flights.

A few highlights:

This cathedral in downtown was absolutely magnificent.

Presidental Palace Bogota
The Colombian Presidental Palace

Colombian National Seal
Colombian National Crest . . . there's lots of fantastic symbolism. The bird on the top is the Condor, the national bird.

On our last night, we went to an unbelievable gallery show for the graffiti artist TOT. I am officially obsessed!!
