Day Three in Ecuador






Day three, Guillermo Valencia, the driver who picked us up when we first arrived, took us to the airport to see if my bag had shown up. I was praying, hard, and my prayers were answered. It was there and pretty well smashed. From there, Guuillermo took us to Otavalo. We stopped at a great view point along the way and had biscochos and coffee. The hostel, Dona Esther, in Otavalo is GREAT. Good food, good atmosphere, and in a good location. Checked out the market a little bit, the one that is there every day, and kicked back at Tobasco's with cerveza. There is a great patio overlooking the market. At Dona Esther, they have a wood burning dome-shaped "oven" in which they cook things...Great Pizza.
