So when I last wrote, Ihad just gotten back from watcing the hummingbird show in Mindo. Well the next day Dario and I went to the Canopy for zipplining. I went on 13 seperate cables over the jungle travelling above the jungle at up to 80 km and hour!!! That was fun! After that we headed back to Quito, where Dario and Juanita had a bunch of friends over for a dinner party. It was really good because one of their friends is a gourmet Chef. He made a delicious salad witha awesome dressing, and passion fruit pork. It was an amzing meal. Then next day I had to myself, as Dario and Juanita had a meeting at Youth World, so I just kinda wandered around th area that the live, It went pretty good. Had a coffee at Sweet and Coffee, went to the mall, and had subway for lunch. Later that night we boarded a plane and went of to Cuenca. We got there in the rain, but we grabbed quick supper and then walked around a bit downtown. The next morning, we hopped a bus, in the sunshine, to Ingapirca. This is the largest remaining Incan ruins in Ecuador, and while it is no Machu Pichu, it was very neat and informative. After that we headed back to Cuenca, ate at Wunderbar and watched team Ecuador trounce Venezuela in soccer and eliminate them from the World Cup. That night we went downtown again,and they were having a celebration of some sort with traditional danceing and a crazy old guy smoking and lighting of homemade fireworks. That was kind of sketchy. Quite a few of them set of car alarms. The fun thing about the dancing was that while I was trying to watc, I was getting hit on by a trio of 16 year old girls. ohthe look of disappointment on their faces when I said I was 26.
What can I say, I´m a heart breaker. Anyways, the nextday we hopped a bus to Ambato and Puyo, which ranged between a 5 and 10 hour bus ride depending on who you asked. We got to Puyo, had a delicious Pizza, mada by a lady, who lookedvery Mennonite.
well anywaysthat is all for now. Talk to you later.
