Belgian cowboys in Colombia

I plucked this photo, named "Belgian cowboys" by its unknown maker, from the above website, which relates the story of two adventurers who embarked at the end of October on a trip around the world. One of the adventurers is my son. The trip has so far taken them to Nicaragua, the USA (California), Costa Rica, Panama and Colombia.

Also on their blog I found this picture of what they described as "Belgian Government". It was taken just before the end of the 541 day period during which Belgium was government-less (and had only a "caretaker" government).

  14. Frans, dank voor je commentaar. ik ben ervan overtuigd dat het een unieke levenservaring is en voor altijd speciaal zal zijn voor hen.

    Jacques Robert, un très grand merci et vice versa.

    Ja, Bieb... avontuurlijk, dat zeker... maar natuurlijk wordt hij heel hard gemist hier ten huize.

    Lapommeduverger, I am delighted that you enjoy reading about my son's travels and I appreciate your compliment very much.
