Bogota for Thanksgiving

If anyone is looking for a quick trip to Bogota for Thanksgiving, try JetBlue out of Orlando. I just booked a few days ago for my wife and daughter. Leave on Tuesday, come back on Monday. Less than $270 per person, including all taxes. Pretty good on short notice.

Have fun Griz,
My wife, and her mother and one of her sisters, have a web cam session booked for this eves. I'm thrilled. It's free. I'm hoping I save some money on phone bills.

Maybe one of these days those Indian Dell engineers will come up with a way to phase people from one place to another, and bypass the petty bureaucrats.

When you said those petty pricks meeet with you and tell you not to talk unless they ask you a question; that pissed me off. ____ ____!

Since my mother-in-law was denied the visa (again) and everyone was feeling bad, I decided to send my wife and daughter down there. The tickets for Christmas are steep and I have my 79 year old mom here, so Christmas was out. So I think I made my wife and MIL happy. I will stay here. Got to work on two of those days and then will have Thanksgiving with my mom. I'll be using technology to keep in touch with everyone done there too!

Great price I paid about 800, I wish you were going to be there Griz it would be an honor meeting you. This trip is all about business for me so anyone that wants to get a coffee or lunch , let me know I will be up to my ears in some work this time, but a get away with anyone for a short time would definetely add a little fun time into my full schedule ....

I'm going down to Bogota immediately after Thanksgiving. Flights from Denver were pretty affordable - $569 is what I paid to fly with Delta. This will be my first time to Bogota (save for the time when my plane was diverted out of Caracas to Miami) and I'm trying to read up on places to visit and hotels to stay in. Have a great trip GrizGator!
