Homeward Bound: The Incredible Journey




After rappelling down the waterfall, we headed back into San Gil and caught the bus to Bogota. It was the first leg of the long journey home. Also, Ryan, Neil and I have been turned into two dogs and a cat. Here we are in front of the waterfall.

The bus service we used to get to bogota was Concorde. We chose Concorde for two reasons: one, their motto was "Always on time!" Two, the man at the desk kept yelling that they have buses gigantes. I don't know why this persuaded us, since both saying "Always on time" and saying "buses gigantes!" are costless and unverifiable signals. Any equilibirum where they are persuasive is unsustainable, because every single carrier can make unverifiable and costless claims so that then no information is conveyed by any single carrier doing it. As it turned out, the equilbirium is especially unsustainable, because Concorde is not freaking on time. They were an hour late getting to san gil, and then the trip took an hour and a half longer than it was supposed to. We didn't get into bogota until 130 AM.

Today we haded out. We're going to spend tonight in Brooklyn and then take a bus to philadelphia and drive to pittsburgh tomorrow.
