There are so many things to do around Medellín and with such a big family there is always a farm, cottage or place to go.  We visited La Siria, a beautiful country side residential area, where we spent the weekend.  We enjoyed a bit of sunshine and a refreshing pool.

We also visited Guatape for a weekend.  We spent time wake boarding and going around the reservoir on the boat. Wake boarding is challenging, Carlos manage to get out of the water a couple of times, but he could hardly move the day after, every muscle was sore.
