Ecuador - Day 13

Inside of Outside

Late beet breakfast with fruit, yoghurt, freshly squeezed OJ. Got geared up and hiked to Volcano Park. Rode Teleferiqo 3/4 up the mountain. Beautiful cloudy, foggy views. Rented horses and a guide and rode / hiked almost to the summit. Very beautiful green valleys, misty mountain tops, craggy outcroppings, and steep drops. So good to ride a horse again. Our guide Luis gave us plants from the mountain to make a medicinal tea. Tasted gross, we'll see if it works. Spent the evening playing guitar with Ashley. Then veggie-fried rice for dinner, and an international chat - Canada of course, and Norway, France, and The Netherlands. We meet the stereotype - outdoorsy and friendly.
