From Salento I got rides to Buga, a town which was somehow less interesting than the hassle it took me to leave it.
Nice sunset view from the roof of my hostel. The pink church is one of the main pilgrimage sites in Colombia.
Interesting trees on the way out.
And some kind of fancy-pants mansion.
Then I was faced with this thing.
This thing. Never seen one before in Colombia…
…but perhaps they wanted to celebrate having a smooth road with three lanes on either side.
Anyhow, I made several short hops towards Popayan.
Getting there…
And stopped in some nice spots on the way.
Shade was important.
And this tree trunk was cool.
Just patiently waiting…
And that’s all you’re getting.
