Cajas

I went to Cajas National Park yesterday -- so many lakes it could give Minnesota a run for its money! Though, I suppose Minnesota has it beat it terms of square kilometers. Miles, whatever. Anyway, I caught a bus there from Cuenca, and hiked around for a few hours. Really nice. Not the most hands-down stunning scenery, but really pleasant. It has some funky trees, kind of similar to Madrone. I think I got more than a few scratches when taking a wrong turn off the trail, however!

It was Sunday, and on the ride back I think I must have seen at least 15 pig roasts. Smells a lot better than the guinea pig, if you ask me! I got back later afternoon, so the rain started up pretty soon, and spent the rest of the night hanging out at the hostel, mostly with this German girl, Sonia, that I really like. Was great. -- Like I said, a very pleasant day.
