I haven't seen the first Viper here and doubt I will, but for all you suffering with cold weather my heart goes out to you. I have been sailing, jet skiing, and been served like a king. My wife is from Cartagena and we are down here for the Christmas holidays visitng her family. Today we went to the Islas Rosorio (Rosorio Islands) which has to be one of the most beuatiful places on earth. It is an hour south west of Cartagena, the water is crystal clear and aqua blue. basically there are small houses and a hotel on rock islands, it is all basic, no electricity, running water, or headaches. The hotel has no doors or windows and the menu is whatever is caught that day. I spent the day swimining and hanging out in a hammock with the sound of crashing waves and a 20 knot wind, while one of islanders went out a caught me a lobster and then grilled it to perfection. Too bad I drank so much beer and wine or I might have taken better photos. Can't say I'm rushing to get back, except to drive the Viper. Hope all are doing well. I'll get tan for everyone. Saludos!!!

"crashing waves and a 20 knot wind"

Well, I had crashing waves and at least 20 kt wind today too.

Problem was, the wind chill was 5 degrees.

Hi John......sounds like you are having a great time. Enjoy
it. Thank you very much for the check you sent me for the sponsorship of the Vipers Soccer Club. Got it few days ago. The kids are thrilled and are doing superbly well in the indoor tournament. They are representing the Viper name very well. They have amazed a lot of people with their talents so far.

Hey, wait a minute! If you have no electricity how did you make this post? Something smells fishy! Whatever you’re smoking I want some ;)


Enjoy your vacation with Maria and make sure you wear a jacket when you set your foot in Orlando. We are freezing our coconuts over here :shocked:

Steve ...Do you think there is another conspiracy going on....could he be hiding in his closet at home with his family in Orlando.......

Maybe we need some pictures of him and his family with Jaun Valdez(sp?) and the donkey infront of Columbian state building.

Although I heard he was very computer savoy and it could be photoshoped....maybe if he brought me back some Columbian emeralds....yeah that would work. If it didn't work for me my wife sure would be excited to see him.
