Sights in Pali

Page 67 text:

Cali itself provided the ideal place to spend a relaxed weekend, especially after a hectic week of Handclasp activities on the ship. Headquarters for most of the crew in Cali was the lntercontinental Hotel, where all the luxuries of home were provided at a reasonable price. It provided swimming, fine cuisine, a nightclub overlooking the city and it was located for easy access to the downtown area of Cali. lf you were lucky enough to strike up a friendship in Colombia-you were probably treated to the hospitality Colombians give so generously. They took you home to meet the family and have dinner, and probably invited you back whenever you could make it. One final word on liesure in Colombia. lf you can't remember the name of that stuff you drank in Cali or Buenaventura, it's aguardiente. To this day I don't think anyone really knows exactly what's in it-but considering the effects it has on the human body, perhaps it's best that you won't find much of it in the United States. Nix
