Airport Walk

The other thing I did yesterday was walk from Florida Nueva, which is the neighborhood where I live, to Enrique Olaya Herrera Airport, which is 8km away according to Google maps. I had seen this Youtube video of things happening at the airport and I ferreted out that it had been filmed from a sports complex to the Southwest of the runway, off Carrera 70. I began walking.

On the way there I saw these fruits.

And I saw this old motorcycle.

And I saw this old minivan/pickup truck.

I arrived at the sports complex and climbed up several rows of bleacher seats. The view I had was exactly like that of the person who filmed this video, which is a good one; you can watch airplanes take off and circle around the valley and land.

Then I walked to the south end of the Airport and found a plant shop and some big festival going on (probably because of El Dia de San Juan.)

I ate a cup of papitas (tiny fried potatoes.)

And the airplanes flew right over our heads.
