 I did not intend to become a tourist guide for the cities of Colombia; that can be left up to Kyril on his return home.  Meanwhile, he and his son Vanya are taking Colombia by storm and I just hope that he takes enough photos for us to look at to get a general impression of that country and that he behaves like a good Canadian tourist.  A home care replacement came late this afternoon to help both Vladika Lazar and me  with preparations for the night and I  was taken aback when she introduced herself as Girly.  She must have noticed that as she immediately added that it was her official name.  I rather think that she is Punjabi and that her name is truly Girly, which must mean something quite different in that language, but which sounds odd as a first name.  At least it was not the name of a male.
