Note:  Many of the pictures in this blog series are taken from the internet, because we had our camera stolen halfway through the trip.


At 8 AM, Leo drives us to a van that taxis to Cuenca.  We bought tickets a few days ago, and now we're all set.  We say our goodbyes and settle down into a very comfortable 3 1/2 hour van ride.  There's an English speaking family sitting behind us, with a baby who throws up all over her dad, poor thing.

In the Cuenca airport, we check in.  I ask where our gate is, and the agent points around the corner.  We sit on a bench for a while before we realize the gate is actually probably through a small side door marked "seguridad" or security.

We go through Cuenca airport security, board our plane, fly back to Quito, take a taxi to the guest house, and settle into our room.  We plan to walk out to the mall for dinner but I just want to stay inside, so Joe goes out and gets us some junk food and we hole up and watch Independence Day.
