Travelers

My friend and I were drinking coffee at a small roadside restaurant in Colombia when some kids who were traveling came bounding up to us and asked if we could buy them something to eat. We said sure and bought them breakfast.

So kind of you Pitter! But I have to ask, why did they ask you guys?

Suni Park, a lot of Colombians are poor so such a request isn't unexpected especially when they come upon couple of gringos. What I realized later is that they were on their way to the city of Cali to see a football game, their team America against I don't know who so they must have had some cash. I think you could say they hustled us but no harm done.

Nice back story. That's probably why they are happy.
