Botero, no big deal?? highly questionable, police all go home at night
[QUOTE=Knowledge;2008350]Walking across Botero is no big deal, even late at night. It is very well lighted and heavily patrolled by police and police cameras. Those streets behind the museum are another story altogether.
Anyway, follow the advice you've received here and it will be OK. Nighttime bar hopping in Parque Lleras will do you no harm. It might bore you worst case but that's no big deal. Fahrenheit might be worth a look if you have time. It really depends how down and dirty you want to get. My opinion is the strip clubs on Maracaibo is about as down as is reasonable but it's a personal choice. In case you overlooked it in other posts, there are tranny streetwalkers who don't always stick together. In other words, they will sometimes line up next to their female counterparts on calle 52 across the side wall of the museum. I re-hash this so we don't have to read about any WTF moments. LOL![/QUOTE]After 8 or 9 pm travelling alone don't exit the plaza to the south, past white church iglesia veracruz, or west, along south side of museo, ok east to the metro or north across degrieff to Conejitas.

For those of you who like to pick street walkers and similar, be very careful.

Visiting Medellin Tuesday March 14th
Hello fellow mongers,
Two friends and I will be visiting Medellin (El Poblado) on Tuesday. We would love to meet up, especially if you speak semi-decent Spanish (none of us speak much Spanish).
We are all in our mid twenties and looking to have some fun! Message me.
