Ciclovia

Bonita's favorite day of the week is Sunday because it is Ciclovia in all of Bogota. During Ciclovia, various streets are closed to traffic, and only open to bikes, joggers, walkers, and pets. Temporary bike stands are opened along the street to service bikes. There are also food stands and special bicycle traffic police. I think it is possibly one of the most organized events I have witnessed since moving to Colombia.



Our participation normally includes a walk to one of our favorite breakfast spots and a trip to the dog park. At the dog park Bonita has a group of regular playmates that includes two beagles, a chow chow, a Jack Russell , and any other dog walking by. This is a picture of Bonita happily playing with a dog four times her size.



You can barely see Bonita in this picture, but I promise she is there. When we finally broke up the fun, Bonita was covered from head to tail in golden retriever slobber.
