Here is another blog from November that I had sent only to my family. You may find it interesting. I've sent you some pics in several emails now, but failed to say anything about the activities, so here is an explanation for your information and entertainment. Every year, the last day of October (known in the USA as Halloween) All Souls Day...or....Dia de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) is celebrated. This rolls right into what probably is the largest event of the year for Cuenca...Indepen... Read More
The churches here in Cuenca, Ecuador are fantastic. Most have that Old World charm of the Spanish of the 16th. century. Inside though, most of those I've visited for Mass, are very simple.

I made myself a cup of Mountain Blend instant coffee I brought with me. I had to drink it black because I had absolutely nothing in the fridge or cupboards. Good thing I brought some Stevia to sweeten it. As it turned out, it wasn't too bad. I am pleasantly surprised by my complete lack... Read More
Phew....what a day. I'll not advise about my first day flying originally from Cleveland, Ohio to Atlanta, Atlanta to Miami and finally into Quito, Ecuador, where I stayed the night at The Travellers Inn. This story will start on my second day, when I was driven back from the Inn to the Quito airport. I finally got into Cuenca around 1PM Wednesday, with a lot of help from 2 people I met at the Quito airport, Garth and Orilla Bogart from Canada. (These were the first of many people I call...
