    No matter if you have eaten or not, you will het hungry anyway reading your colorful food experiences and the very tasty pictures!
    You can always look forward to new goal when you are back home: how to get lost of the extra pounds.
    Happy travels!

      Oh, you would have to remind me of that, Annet! It has only gotten worse in Ecuador, where they grow 5,000 different varieties of potatoes and discovery fruits that we can’t stop sampling. Travel today, starve tomorrow?

    Well, beyond not drinking the water,
    Did you avoid ice and did you watch all the fruit get peeled? I would be nervous!!! But th Botero images are classic indicators that indeed the food has stayed down. I’m happy about that and happy to see this report! Keep safe and keep having fun! Debra and Stephen and kids

      Very very sadly, we do not eat any fresh fruit outside of tourist-savvy restaurants or hotels that has been peeled. It looks soooo good but feels soooo risky. We do take ice but follow the same rule – only in hotels and restaurants that are obviously and successfully serving foreign travelers likely to be sensitive to unfiltered water.

    Dear Doris,

    So glad to hear that you have the intestinal fortitude to make this trip such a success!

    (Who invented that expression?).

      I am crediting the bismuth! Though, you know, travel hygiene has gotten so much better since I lived in Mexico 45 years ago. Even street vendors wear gloves and masks, and the tap water in Medellin and Bogota was actually quite drinkable.
