Feria del Libro

Went to Bogot�'s awesome International Book Fair yesterday. One of the largest events of its kind in the region. The two week event attracts over 400,000 visitors... massive! Explored around for 3 hours and still didn't see everything. Quite cool...

Of course, I was hoping that I would find some English books (international fair, right?). We followed the 'habla ingles' sign only to find a small section of books meant for people who want to learn english (of course, silly me, what was I thinking?). And besides all the english dictionaries, grammar workbooks and children's story books, the only english books I could find were some technical ones. So I ended up buying 'Natural Resources and Violent Conflict' and a choice selection of other World Bank/IMF publications (woo hoo?) Ah well, I guess falling asleep every night is going to be that much easier... : )

at first I was going to tell you how jealous I was. Then you started talking about WB and IMF publications.

haha. keep on reading, Indian princess. (must get a hold of the Fortune at the Bottom of the Pyramid book u were talking about).

I am too lazy, so am listening to Willy Clinton's "My Life" on CD. Besides, you can hear his husky voice then.
