Up early met Lindsay for quick breakfast then we headed to the airport to find the shippers.
We arrive at the usual chaos for border crossing and as usual it's raining, meet up with Leivy Becerra our contact and she directs us back to customs to get our import documents cancelled, back on the bikes find the office and the usual que.
The computer is down we have to wait, twenty minutes later we are directed in and we get our documents, back to shippers more papers and payment, it's hard counting out 1250 dollars when the ferry was only going to be 180 dollars but it's done and we disconnect battery and wheel bikes into warehouse, final show of exist documents at customs, find a taxi and back to hotel.
Hopefully we will see the bikes again in Bogota, they fly tomorrow.
Quick shower pack everything into our 20 buck bag purchased the previous evening then taxi back to airport check in, Lindsay looses his knife at security left it in his tank bag which he is using as hand luggage , despite arguments it's gone. Tracy feeling a bit sick.
Bogota here we come!
