Bogota ... what Bogota ???

Yesterday we went to a bus terminal to take a night bus to Bogota. We arrived there at 10, and all the seats on the buses until 2 am were already sold out !!! So we waited and waited, there were so many people trying to get in, the bus company was trying to get another bus which might arrive at 2 am. We tried to buy tickets for the next day, but there was such a chaos, that 2 hours later, we all fully tired and unable to move went back to the hotel. I thought that I´ll just drop dead on the bed, but nope, couldn´t fall asleep till 4 am. With TV on, people talking in the lobby, light right in the face, people screaming that there is something in the room, somebody came back drunk in the middle of the night and started to make too much noise :(( Barely got up at 8 am and after a freezing shower went to the bus terminal to get the tickets for a night bus for today. Got them ! So in 2 hours we´ll be on our way to Bogota. Not much else to write. Just a few random points ...
- There are buses in here, and if they don´t go somewhere, you just get off, and in most cases there will be motorbikes waiting to take you wherever you need to go. At first when we went to the Indian reserve I was freaked out and refused to take it, but now it´s ok, and it can fit 3 people somehow, so it´s cheap, fast and safe!
- When we went to the hike in Sallento, we went there on Jeeps. So they have this cool system that they deliver stuff on the way to the hike, so along an empty road there will be suddenly a 6 year old kid waiting to pick up some milk and coke :) On the way back, Eva sat on the roof on the jeep !
- Almost everybody has a cellphone in here, but the local calls are about 350 pesos, so there are a bunch of people selling minutes on the streets for 100-200. And everybody uses them. First I thought it´s just for the tourists, but no, they´re so popular! Caller ID is really useless service in here :)
- I also noticed that people are singing everywhere in here, on the streets, in the buses, in the hotels. And very loud too! Happy crowd!
- Today we went to a coffee plantation. Getting there was interesting. We just took 2 buses, but the thing is that we never know how to get anywhere. And I always have questions on my mind... are we going in the right direction? Are we going to the correct place? ... Are we gonna get there at all??? But all the time we do somehow :) So today, we got off somewhere in the middle of the road (cause somebody told us), then we went 2 kms by foot, but got there at the end! We had a private tour with Eva. Wore their typical cloths, saw how the whole process takes place from planting them, until drinking them ... not really anything that interesting. But the interesting thing is that when the beans are dry, they sell them at that point. So the other countries buy them and process them themselves. Then there were beds from bamboo to rest on, and me and Eva completely passed out for 2 hours among the chickens, ducks and turkeys :) Wanted to have some lunch, but it was way too expensive, $5 !!! Are they nuts ?? It´s a rip off!! So we protested the price and decided to stay hungry :)) On the way back to the main road (2 kms), there was a dog that was following us all the way. It was really funny. It was always looking at us, wiggling it´s tail. But the thing is that we passed many other dogs on the way who were barking and doing their dog fights thingis .. and that dog was always hiding next to us, and using us as his protection, so a few times it was pretty scary being surrounded by 4 dogs chasing each other, barking, showing their teeth! Then it waited for the bus with us :)) Somebody even told us that we can´t take our dog on the bus :))
- Oh, and we tried "prostokvasha" today ... Russain people will know :))
