ONE OF MY FAVORITE CENTRAL MEDELLIN PLACES
These photos are of one of my favorite places in central Medellin: Plazuela San Ignacio....As you can see, it's very active and is an excellent place for people-watching. I go here frequently to have a coffee and sit on the bench and read a book, to watch life. A wonderful side benefit is that I often meet some wonderful people.
Yesterday, for example, a young guy came along and sat down on my bench. He was having an animated conversation with another guy when suddenly he broke out into an a capella song that sounded like some sort of Colombian ranchera music. It was quite nice.
I also saw a group of about 8 little girls, ranging in age from about 8-12 years of age. They were having a grand time as they walked along with a nun who appeared to be no more than 20 years old herself. It was delightful to see how much they all loved each other. Each of the little girls was vying for the nun's attention as they touched her and competed to see who would hold her hands or lock their arms with her.
