While exploring the ancient Andaquies ruins & viewing spectacular landscapes while fortunately not falling out the back over the rough terrain, I learned there had been a bomb exploded in the bus terminal I'd just left in Bogota. Five people were killed but I don't know who did it or why. The police found another bomb before it went off.
I don't have much more detail then that because I was getting information second hand from a guard listening over a transistor radio. Very sad for the victims & their families, but I can't help think that my intuition to get out of Bogota early appears to have been good information.
I don't have very good connectivity here in this town but hope to have better when I get to Popayan in a couple days.
Hasta for now.
