Around The World Blog: My Fourth location visit!

Hello again! Today I am going to tell you about my fifth location visit which was .... TAYRONA, SANTA MARTA, COLUMBIA, IN SOUTH AMERICA!! It was absolutely BEAUTIFUL there! The capital of Columbia is Bogota, which is also very pretty. Did you know that Ecuador, Peru, Venezuela, Brazil, and Panama all border Columbia! The South Atlantic Ocean, The South Pacific ocean, and the Southern Antarctic Ocean, are all bodies of water that border South America, I was so happy I got to see them all! I found out that the GPS coordinates for Tayrona, Columbia is eleven degrees altitude and 74 degrees longitude. Cool right?! Columbia's climate changes A LOT. Towards the Coast it is very HOT! But in the mountains the temperature is cold and the mountains have snow on them too!!! Tayrona, Columbia is gorgeous! The beach has BRIGHT BLUE crystal clear waters with warm golden colored sand! The sun shines all the time the it has huge rocks on the sand. Behind the beach, you can see miles of miles of trees, so its like being on a beach in the forest! I found out this cool fact on the history of this beach! Did you know the Santa Marta is Colombia's first Spanish settlement! I find that fascinating! I also found that Tayrona, Santa Marta, Columbia beach is about 4,690 miles from my last location which was Panama City Beach in Florida. I got to my new location by plane, I have gotten pretty used to flying now. Although it was TONS of fun, my plane did have a two hour delay, oh well though it was worth the wait! I'd say the biggest difference between Tayrona, Santa Marta beach in Columbia, and Panama City Beach is the way the beaches look! Columbia's had rocks and trees around the beaches and Panama City Beach in Florida was just sand and water. Well it was nice blogging to you, but i gotta go now, I must get ready for my next trip!
