Not for ye weak of stomach.

Ok, so after my rainy days in Cuenca I was off to Loja. One more town closer to finally leaving Ecaudor (I swear!). And suddenly it dawned on me, "I´m suddenly close to leaving Ecuador and I have totally forgotten to do the most important thing!" That would be trying the Cuy (Guinea Pig) that is a tradition here! Don´t worry, crisis averted. I wouldn´t let you guys, or myself, down!

The "Door to the City" Which happens to be guarded by strange, wrought-iron horesmen.Hmmm. Have I seen this before somewhere?Some other shots from around the city...
A church! BIG suprise!
OK. Now on to the main event. The eating of rodent!
Staring at my morocho and waiting for the entree to arrive!There she is! A little half guinea pig just for me!Anticipation...Who are we kidding. Of course I liked it!
The end.




Oooh. I almost forgot! My other favorite memory of Loja was getting run over by all the kids when school was let out!

Oi, achei seu blog pelo google está bem interessante gostei desse post. Gostaria de falar sobre o CresceNet. O CresceNet é um provedor de internet discada que remunera seus usuários pelo tempo conectado. Exatamente isso que você leu, estão pagando para você conectar. O provedor paga 20 centavos por hora de conexão discada com ligação local para mais de 2100 cidades do Brasil. O CresceNet tem um acelerador de conexão, que deixa sua conexão até 10 vezes mais rápida. Quem utiliza banda larga pode lucrar também, basta se cadastrar no CresceNet e quando for dormir conectar por discada, é possível pagar a ADSL só com o dinheiro da discada. Nos horários de minuto único o gasto com telefone é mínimo e a remuneração do CresceNet generosa. Se você quiser linkar o Cresce.Net(www.provedorcrescenet.com) no seu blog eu ficaria agradecido, até mais e sucesso. (If he will be possible add the CresceNet(www.provedorcrescenet.com) in your blogroll I thankful, bye friend).
