Today we went walking around Mompox. It's an old town with lots of churches and on an island in a river system. My favourite of the things that we saw was a cemetery where there were lots of cats, kittens, and a dog. The reason I like cemeteries is because they are quiet. We went for a juice a little while later and then we slowly walked home. We watched the opening ceremony of the Olympics and the Queen parachuted out of a helicopter. In the evening we went and had traditional Italian pizza made by an Austrian who owns a restaurant nearby. He made all the furniture in his restaurant by hand and there was a real wood-fired pizza oven.

It's not a very attractive name for a town is it? MOMPOX. To me it sounds rather like an illness that your mother might have. Good to hear you are having a good time there though, or at least good pizza.
ReplyDeleteDon't ask me why Mompox is called Mompox. It sounds a little like chicken pox.
