I awoke early and headed downstairs ..... no one but me was stirring at this hour......so breakfast would need to wait.....a few pics from last evening of the inside and street scape's....
The owner is from Chicago.....she and her spouse purchased the place after vacationing here when it came up for sale......
looking towards the mineral bath springs
wash basins ????
More to follow as I go out and explore Banos on foot....bike is parked until the 2nd of January.
The New York Lad on a Freedom Self Guided Tour.....he is headed for Cotocachi Amazon Lodge....yes....the same one where Ken had the late night encounter with a BEAST.....back in February.
Little late for a Christmas parade.....
Central Park
enlarge and you will see all the crooked poles that are scaffolding to hold the cement floor above......this is the way it is done in Ecuador and Peru
a street with moto rentals of all sorts including dune buggies......
In 1999 the local volcano which had basically been dormant for 300 years (except around 1949 when it spewed steam) erupted and the locals were forced by the army to evacuate the city. The evacuation lasted close to 10 months. Since then, I have been told that eruptions occurred in 2006/7.....though this time people refused to leave. The picture of the inside of the church is the one mention in the story on Banos.
