Moving north in Ecuador

Vilcabamba was a relaxing stop, but a bit too full of retired ex-pat wannabe-hippy Americans for our liking. Not real Ecuador.

Another 5-hour minibus ride got us to our apartment in the historic centre of Cuenca which has some fine colonial buildings. With fine dining (twice) and a symphony orchestra (once) it all feels a bit civilized!

Have just satisfied Judy's need to go horse riding - not sure we can walk far tomorrow!

One day visiting local villages which were less interesting than expected. Last day walking in the Cajas national park - lovely but high - picnic at 3960m! J still having difficulty breathing at these altitudes!

Now heading a long way north and up into the high mountains and volcanoes.
