The countdown to the exodus has begun. I've started to try to do all the things that I've kept putting off. One of those things was a day trip to Salento. Salento is a small town north of Manizales. There's not a lot to do but relax. The weather is damp and cold, but that's why it is green and lush. There were a lot of people wearing wellies. It seems that the hostel rent them out. I wore converse. I'm not always very nature adept.
We took a jeep down to the Corcora valley to check out the wax palms, Colombia's national tree, and the trout farm. We ate trout then headed back to town for some sitting around and shopping. That was enough for me. Perhaps more natury type people can find more to do, but for me a day was just enough.
