Cali Colombia

After a 21hr flight, Michael and I arrived in Cali - Colombia, with no luggage and just the clothes on our back and a spare pair of underwear (Tip: always fly with spare clothes). The weather is beautiful, nice and hot and sunny (just like home - Brisbane). We haven't seen the track yet, but will go today.
