Colombia gets its first bar for deaf

BOGOTA, Colombia - It is not yet dark, but the two girls sitting at a table in a Bogota bar flick on the lamp on their wooden table.

It is the signal to the bartender that they want a drink, in Colombia's first-ever bar for the deaf.

The Sin Palabras Cafe Sordo - No Words Deaf Cafe - is the first of its kind in the country, said Maria Fernanda Vanegas, one of its three owners.
