I'm at it again, but I give up! I have been reading all the history of Colon and it was very interesting and the most interesting photo for me was
the sculture with the fort behing. I think it is the Fort San Cristobal in the old City of San Juan in Puerto Rico.

The boots are a sculpture dedicated to the discoverer of the country, Colon. So it is the streets of old San Juan in Puerto Rico .
History tells us of the arrival of slaves, first to that country and then to the U.S.A.
for that reason you find the lady with the fruit in the head and she is black. Hopefully this is it this time.
We'll see each other again.

The last link to Colon is Panama: its capital is Colon and I'm sending you link with the streets of the city of Panama, very similar to the one in your brother's photo and with balconies and the Cathedral identical.
Will it be it?....Thank you very much. I had a great time!

I didn't give up. I've put my children to sleep and I travelled through the internet again. I found one photo with the cathedral with the same street and balconies and the people too. I think it's the City Santo Domingo in the Dominican Republic.

Sunday March 25th, 2007 I found the Country!
I found the Country, it is Colombia. It was difficult for me, I spent many days and nights reading and researching to resolve this riddle. The most important photograph for me was the sculpture with the fortress behind it. During my search I thought that the first clue was with the cathedral in the city, I found a similar place called Capitol of Havana which also has a fortress. But Rosa suggested to read the Histories of Cristobal Colon, my second clue was in the name of the discoverer of America (Cristobal Colon ). I found San Cristóbal City in Dominican Republic, San Cristóbal Fortress in Puerto Rico, Colon City in Panama and in Costa Rica the currency is the Colon. I sent many emails to Rosa with my possibilities. When I was about to give up she suggested to read again the path that Colon did. I rested for one day and continued my journey, again I thought in the name that Colon gave the first city "Las Indias" with that in mind I did my searching and found Cartagena Las Indias in Colombia
