Today we have to get insurance for the bikes before we leave, Paco, the guy we met at the bike shop has given us the name of a chap who works in this office and will ring him to introduce us. A taxi to the office and we ask for Richard, Pacos friend and they ring him for us. When Martin speaks to him on the phone apparently he doesn’t work ther any more so we are now waiting for a Mr Francisco and are given a cup of coffee.
Suddenly Paco turns up and informs us that they don’t do the insurance here we need to go down the road, we informed him we are waiting for a Mr Fancisco and he said ‘thats me’, they call Francisco’s Paco here. So Richard has phoned him and he has come out to meet us and guide us through the process, how kind is that. A trip down the street and Paco odering what we need we are done in no time. Many thanks indeed, way beyond the call of duty. This is how kind and helpful we have found Columbians.
Back to the hotel and we pack up and head off towards Armenia which is a reasonably uneventful journey and we find a recommended hotel. On arriving at these gates we ring the bell and a short tims later a young man lets us in and we drive up the drive, and get booked in.
Upon further investigation this place is vast and the accommodation is in 2 buildings, another houses the dining room and a bar upstairs and then there is a pool with Turkish bath, hot tub, a few bits of gym kit, table tennis and other similar game tables, it is fantastic, but we are the only guests.
Dinner is laid on for us and we are given info on a coffee park where we can go tomorrow.
