VOLCANOES and CONDORS

(Ecuador - November 2005)

Rest in Latacunga and market in Pujili

Rather quiet, the streets of Latacunga, on sunday...

Explanation : everybody is at the Pujili market...

Everything is to be found there, in abundance.

 

 

and also handycraft : not to be missed !

 

Farms have not changed much since Whymper...
but nobody lives there anymore...

 

 

By the way, what about the condors ?

We saw them : 5 couples live around Cotopaxi.

But no way to take pictures, without a long lens...

Whymper tells that they are so big that they have difficulties in taking flight (particularly with a full belly) : one can easily catch them running.

The story was confirmed.
