Thanks for sharing William. I love your area

Rob, The Metro system map is available on the internet. Same map as posted within the Metro system. You could easily insert that Metro map in your presentation for helpful orientation to realize your azimuth. Carrera & Calle.

New York City never looked as good as Laureles. I lived there many years. At Estadio Station I met one of the nicest paisas. For me, LA 70 and Calle 33 are not places to be after dark. Tourists go more to LA 70 and locals go more to Calle 33. I'll miss a lot, but that is ok. I like my life and my possessions.

Gotcha. I used to sit in the corner on 33 and drink and people watch. Younger crowd too.

Near the Exito market are low cost places to do bachata and salsa in the evenings where tourists and locals mingle.

Where you say sit on the Estadio Metro steps is also located a station for the free to ride EnCicla bicycles.

I live in the Parque del Rio and Pueblita Paisa area and I have walked along those streets many times.

Yes nice area. I always wanted to walk to Pueblita Paisa from the street, but have only been there being dropped off

. ? Does your dentist remove calculus with hand tools to prevent cavities?. Most Medellin dentist prefer drilling and filling, rather than preventing tooth decay.

The street is beautiful

Oh, there's robbing and druggings for sure. I just didn't report it. And hopefully not tourists or expats. 🙏🙏🙏

Tinto means ink because the coffee is dark like ink. It’s basically an expreso. All you need to get going is a café tinto. La 70 is a very cool street and Laureles is very nice. Great for walking and lots of restaurants and bakeries. Most are good except for the one where you had the bad tamale…

lol. Thanks for the info. The tinto I had, had too much sugar in it. I guess that's how they offset the strength of it

@@dcbornrob Rob, I know you like Medellin news stories. This one has to do with a murder of a local gay guy who had casa that trans girls used in Prado Centro. Happened a week or so ago but was just on TV for a vigil but in papers too. He was called La Gata. Seems he was a very well liked person in Medellin as well as internationally for some reason. It just goes to show that everyone and anyone can be a victim there. This happened mid day and not at night…

Lmao! Couldn't agree more with you about the arepas Rob. I just don't get! Bland, weird texture, no flavor, wtf! 😂
