Another day another near death experience

Yesterday was pretty fun we knew we had to stay out of the hotel because they were having a business conference, we also knew that our guide/lunitic was picking us up at 6:30 to see the lights. So we went to a mall here in medellin that has rides. The problem was of course the odd couple Maria and Logan. Logan being the tallest 8 year old in the history of Colombia and Marie being the shortest we could only go on a few rides as Logan sat there frustrated watching the 14 year olds go by him on to the fun rides. He did however get to do something I have always wanted to do, ride a mechanical bull. He was a little scared mind you when his parents had to sign a waiver form in spanish. Then the guide came to pick us up to see these lights that Medellin sets up. Which by the way are amazing they set up about a 2 mile stretch of lights. They span a tarp like structure over the river about every 50 feet or so and pump water onto these pinwheel like lights which spin and throw the lighted water into the air. Im almost positive a MN electrical inspector would not approve. And the peridodly they have huge scenes like santas workshop and his house and giant nativity scenes. The problem was that our guide told us she would be parking and walking and told Tatiana once we were in the car that we couldn't park we would have to drive.(Tatiana neglected to tell us this until we missed half the lights to take pictures. She was oblivious also to the near death experience we were about to have. I neglected to mention all five of us were in the back seat of her Chevy Aveo to make room for her friend from colarodo that may have been the tallest woman i have ever seen outside of a basketball game. As the guide talked with her friend she drove into on coming traffic and only Karens gutteral scream saved us from certain death. Tatian none the wisere still wants to drive with the guide as she is somehow more scared of taxis. More to come tomorrow if I survive tonights driving experience.
