Resting in Ecuador’s Oldest Hacienda
Posted by: | June 11, 2010
Categories: *Expedition Dispatches *Ecuador
Hello everyone-just a quick note from Ecuador.
Today we traveled north from the city of Lasso to the city of Cayambe, and we’ve spent the afternoon resting in Ecuador’s oldest hacienda, Guachala. The drive through the central Andes of Ecuador was beautiful; verdant rolling hills, with a mosaic of multi-colored farmland was the backdrop to the small pueblos we traveled through today. The clouds cleared enough that we were able to sneak a peak back at Cotopaxi during the drive, as well as see the southern flanks of Cayambe. The weather this afternoon has been beautiful-mostly sunny with a breeze. Tomorrow morning we will head out early for some shopping at the world famous market in the town of Otavalo, and then carry on to the climbing hut on Cayambe. I will be in touch tomorrow with an update.
