We took a two hour bus today to Otavalo to the Saturday Market. The bus generally costs a dollar an hour, so all in all it was a pretty cheap trip. I bought a bag there, you know blend in with the locals. The markets boasts fresh fruits and vegetables and handmade crafts from local indigenous people. Although, not all the stalls are genuinue, seems to be a fair amount of peoples selling "Adibas". Here are a few highlights.
Aisles and aisles of produce!
Nellie scoping out some wool sweaters.
PIG! YUM!
The bus ride there is pretty fantastic as well, too bad we had some cloud cover, all and all, a pretty successful day! Oh ya, we went to a cockfight, for some reason we didn't blend in with the crowd.
Tomorrow we are heading to do the loop. Not sure what the computer situation is there, but probably won't post again until I am back in Quito (rest well mom). Hope all had a great weekend!
Love!
ooohh that pig...
ReplyDeleteI'm suprised to hear you didn't fit in with the crowd at the cockfight?? Seems like it would be your kinda scene...
