Day 2 in Colombia

Hello from an awesome Colombian computer here at the Y in Ibague, which we have discovered contains fun symbols like Ñçç¡¿ Other than having fun with the new symbols on the keyboard, we have had a lot of fun getting to meet the staff from the YMCA, Adrianna, Consuelo, Jaime, Luzayeda, and Nelly. After the five hour bus ride through the beautiful Colombian countryside, we were treated to a delicious native lunch at a local restaurant, consisting of plaintain soup with fresh bananas, chicken and rice and their version of banana-nut bread. Following that, we met our homestay families and settled in before arriving at the YMCA to tell the staff about the Model United Nations and Youth in Government conferences and Plan Padrino.

We`ll update soon with pictures and video! More adventures to come!
