High up on the verdant hillside lies the beautiful church of Monserrate which is adjacent to a statue of the Virgin of Guadalupe. We took a gondola up to around 8500 feet to see this church which was designed and built by Don Pedro with the help of the people of Bogota. It was built in 1657.
Enjoy the views of downtown Bogota.
This evening we just enjoyed a delicious Colombian dinner with the staff of Fulbright. It was really great to share stories and har about all of the supportive work that Fulbright is doing around the world. It crtainly got my attention when they discussed a fellowship to teach ESL as I could really use my National Board mastry of this subject.
