The Gman's Adventures

hey there chimichummies,

i tried to reply to the gone diving blogs but i couldnt get on my blogger account. anyways, bogota is totally *itchin. last night we partied with guillermo vives who is the brother of a famous colombian singer named carlos vives. guillermo owns a restaurant that doubles as a night club that he sings at with his band. he gave me the scoop on the diving in santa marta where i will be in 2 weeks. its the south end of the caribean sea and there is a lot of current so its basically drift city. tomorrow we leave for 5 days of river rafting, hangliding, waterfall repelling, horse back riding, hiking and debotchery. our friends here are very generous, as is the colombian culture. sorry for the lack of transitioning.... the other day we were on walk about around the city and there was this bum on the side of the busy road, just a bum, no one was paying attention to him, but this image is burned into my mind and i am trying to draw a picture of it. this guy had the nastiest, gaping wound that was once his ankle but is now a hole with a knife stuck straight down from the top, into his ankle, perpendicular to the ground and probably just rests right above the bottom of his heal. i cant get it out of my head.

anyways, happy diving. i will be in touch.
