Villa de Leyva

We spent 5 days in Villa de Leyva with Papa Bruce.  We stayed at our friend, Bonnie's, house/bed and breakfast.  She teaches with us and goes to her finca every weekend.  We dug in the clay, hunted for fossils and made pizza and cooked it in her clay oven.

Before you can make things out of clay, you've got to find the clay in the ground.




 Bonnie's place...





After digging in the mud to find the clay, you've got to rinse off in the pond.



Pizza time!


                  





 Fossil hunting on the property.


 Mural in the Fossil Museum
This fossil was discovered in 1977 and the museum was built around it.
