Right then.....
So since my last entry we have been to Baños....a bustling activity town at the edgo fo the Ecuadorian Jungle....its hot and bright...and lively,.....bursting at the seems with tour operators ready to give you their "best" gringo price,.....battering was the job of the day and tiring it was too.!!! We eventually abandoned the jungle idea for Ecuador and opted for a bike ride down to some waterfalls and White water rafting....basically everyone sees you coming a mile off and thinks you know no better......bloody rip off merchants....we talked them down though and got a descent price!!!! $ signs above our heads they see!!!!
We had a great time in Baños met some cool guys, went on a night tour to see an active volcano....that i thought Naivly would be spewing lava over the town....Lizzie a bit more educated in these matter than me...or just more sensible realised this was perhaps not so....but it was cool to get a night time view of the city and some free fire water which is warm sugar cane alcohol....bloody lethal and bloody lovely....two of those bad boys and I was on a roll singing around a campfire,....wonderwall....by a very drunk and what not Ecuadorian called Damian....amazing guy.....a real philosopher....
"you have to drink loads, f**k loads of women, take stuff...and just be happy (imagine slury ecuadorian )....have you ever "special hugged" in a jungle? Its amazing" He says tot he guys we were sat with.....!!!!
So gunny got an awesome picture of him....!!!!
Anyway after Baños we started the epic trip south.....5 buses......across the border to Peru......and no were in HUaraz,......mountain town and amazing...beautiful....and so so cooll....white peaks all around us!!!! We are doing the Santa Cruz hike tomorrow 4 days two mountain passes of 4800m or so......views of lagunas and some of the tallest mountains in Peru!!!! AMAZING...up at 5:30am to get there....yuk!!!!
Trying to upload pics but hasnt really been working.....
Anyway...hope you guys are well.....speak soon
