Cuenca, Ecuador 🇪🇨 

It is Sunday, even quieter in the city and I feel that after my active day yesterday I should venture up to the mirador Turi.  First stop is a coffee shop that Juliette recommended, only to find her in it so I spend a while exchanging travel tips for Colombia with her.  I then stroll down to the Pumapongo museum shop as I’ve decided to buy a small purse I saw there.  I haven’t gone mad on souvenirs due to space but a few things are nice.

I finally head up to the mirador, which provides a great sweeping view of the city.  There are lots of families up here just enjoying time on a Sunday and taking selfies. The steps back down are exhausting, but I am soon back on the main avenue with a heap of football supporters heading to the stadium for a home game.  I go to a artesianal market which is disappointing and then to the bus station.  It takes an hour of queuing to buy my ticket for tomorrow, I will go to Guayaquil which is a big hub before finding a bus to Montañita.
