Economy Travel

We stopped at a big "everything" kind of store - didn't get the name of it. It's along the same type as a Wal-Mart where they have a little bit of everything, including motorcyles and cars. I really liked this one -- looked like a standard bicycle with a small motor and gas tank attached. It can be yours for about a million pesos.



Or you could look into the standard motorcycles like the ones that zip between the cars in traffic in Bogota. They run a simple 1 to 6 million pesos.


They had one car on display -- I didn't get a picture, but it was about the size of one of the taxi's you've seen on previous blogs. I didn't see the full price, but you could buy if for about 1.5 million pesos down.


During the week we were in Colombia, the peso was exchanging at the rate of about 1700 for $1 USD.
