Av 9 de Octubre 432 y Banquerizo Moreno Guayaquil, Ecuador, 4-256-6700
We left Cuenca wth Xavier as our guide again and travelled via the Cajas National Park. It was a spectacular journey through the Andes and Xavier kept saying how lucky we were with the weather as it is often very misty. It was a lovely day with stunning views of the small lakes which dot the area and of the distant valleys. The journey was slightly delayed every now and then due to roadworks. They are resurfacing the road which is a huge undertaking. When we dropped down to the plain the scen...

yesterday being Sunday there wasn't a lot going on, so we did quite a lot of walking around but in the end it was just too hot. It seemed as if the whole city went to sleep around 2pm and didn't get back up again until it was dark and therefore cool. Today we had a lie in then hit the streets to try and buy maps of Peru and Bolivia. We eventually found the libreria Scientifica and they actually had maps of ...

“No, I have friends in Cuenca, leave them there and I will get them to pick up”
Had further conversations with LAN Guayaquil and Cuenca and my novia and amigos. I went outside back to Check in area. Brought a ticket (cheaper) with TAME to catch a flight at 5:30pm. Organised a partial refund of my LAN Boarding Pass. Wasted time in the airport.
Now I had been told that only I was able to collect my bags, and all I needed to do was ...
... devotons and conversation led by Jeff Baxter. Tomorrow will be a full day--two more builds, then a celebratory (late) lunch, and hopefully a tour of downtown Guayaquil, a walk on the Riverwalk, and some shopping for friends and loved ones back home.
There will be some sore muscles tomorrow, but you better believe we'll sleep well tonight. Thanks for tuning in; we'll hopefully have another post tomorrow night before flying to Quito early Thursday morning.
... it is a long couple mile stretch of walkway, parks, resteraunts and nice views of the sound. I notice a backpacker and ask if she speaks english. She does, as do all europans. She is from austria and was looking for her coachsurfing host. We walk around for a few hours talking until she can find a phone to contact her. I head over to the center for some more browsing and then back to my hotel for i have to checkout by 8 a.m. Sorry ...
Guayaquil, Guayas, Ecuador davidayotte... I had lots of fun at the school and also learned some spanish. The teachers were all nice (although i am still unhappy that somebody lost my hawaii towel at the school). I met soo many cool people in montanita, people from the usa, lots of europeans from sweden, england, holland, switzerland, australians, new zealand. All the people were tons of fun to hang out with during the day or at night. The surfing was soo much fun and i really improved. By ...
guayaquil, Ecuador natev515... for the cruise and flight tickets, I went roaming along Malecon 2000, the modern avenue along the coast of Guayaquil. I headed up north and then ascended up Cerro Santa Ana for the view of Guayaquil and Rio ...
Guayaquil, Ecuador nsp003... at the bus terminal in Guayaquil I was pretty surprised. It was a very nice terminal! Not like anything I had seen in Peru. It looked like an airport (a nice airport) in the US-very orderly, clean, well lit. The bathrooms even had toilet paper, soap, and paper towels! In Guayaquil we had to get another bus to Montaņita. While waiting in line we met an American guy, Billy, who was headed our way as well. So we all got our tickets and went to a restaurant for breakfast.
Guayaquil, Ecuador courtenay... of Ecuador. No specific reason, other than at 30 degrees C it was a darn sight warmer there than in Quito. Plus I'd seen just about all I wanted to in Quito, and there was no way I was doing the Teleferiqo cable car ride up Pichinca. Don't get me wrong, I wanted to...but I am still chickenshit when it comes to heights! Found the perfect little BnB in Guayaquil, Casa Romero run by Ellen and her husband Victor. Absolutely ideal ...
