Ok its mall visit time I don’t know if all the pictures will fit I might have to put them up a little at a time. Now first you need to know that this is a very expensive mall that most people in Bello never get to see, but just like in America you can find everything here minus the brand name a lot cheaper in town. Before I go further I should say that the history post I put up before was pretty much word for word from Wikipedia on line encyclopedia. I told Jeff he should use quotes or footnotes or something and he said it made him seem like he knew what he was talking about, that was just before he pushed me of his boney lap and I scratched his leg. Now back to the mall, it’s a very pretty place they even make the Hamburger joint Archie’s look elegant with wine bottles on the table s and table linen. They probably tripled the price just like they did with everything else in the mall. The only reason they were there was to see a snow display they were supposed to have set up somewhere .They never got to see it because Nachos daughter showed up with her new puppy and they had to sit outside and watch it run around and poop for twenty minutes ( see I told you cats were better). They  found a place that sold model trains and thought the price was ridicules at about $1500 for an Ho set not so when Jeff got home he looked up the set on the internet in the US and found the discounted price was $3268.42 But he still not going to buy it. This end of Medellin has a lot of American brand names not just in the mall there was an Office Depot on the road as well as other stores and the mall had several names of clothiers (which of course Jeff can’t remember now, but he remembered the trains) .After a ride in rush hour traffic, which resembles New York a little too much, they got to the river about 5 minutes to six and exactly at six the lights went on. I must say although Ruby seemed to think they weren’t quite as well done as the last time she saw them which was 2 years ago they were pretty cool according to Jeff. They had a conversation with a couple of police officers about their concern for his camera because they were about to cross a patch where there were no lights and under an over pass. Ruby made Jeff put the camera away, he had no objection as there was nothing to photograph anyway, and of course there were no cops to be seen under there. Ruby thought there would be more lights strung across the river so she had Jeff bring his long lens and of course they decided to keep the light more on the bank of the river so you guessed it wrong lens. But I think judging from the pictures that it was still pretty special. So here are the pictures meanwhile I’m going to find a sunbeam to lay down in to rest my weary bones so I can raise hell tonight ciao.
