 |
| Ok so in the U.S. we have the TV show, "The Voice" and in Colombia they have "La Voz, Colombia". Everyone in Colombia (at least everyone in Cali) was really in to it and the finally was the night of ChuCho's Novena. So naturally we turned it on after the Novena and food. |
 |
| I tried to take a picture of the buildings decorated with lights for Christmas but it was had to do in a moving car. Anyways all of the buildings were fully decorated with lights and figurines for Christmas. It was very cool to see all of the holiday spirit. |
