Dnes bol nas posledny den v Quite a potom presun do Latacungy z prekvapivo cistej a novej hlavnej stanice. Autobus sa nam opet podarilo stihnut velmi sikovne a vobec sme necakali, prave naopak, sofer cakal na Stanika kym kupi mandarinky, trocha sa aj pohol, co ma celkom vystresovalo. V autobuse sme boli napadnuty predavacskou mafiou. Asi 15 predajcov nam vo vlnach liezlo do autobusu a pokusalo sa nam predat uplne vselico, hlavne jedlo a zmrzlinu. Vodic v pokoji cakal kym sa vsetci predajci vystriedaju, nedalo sa nemysliet si ze su dohodnuty, ale uz si zvykame.

V Latacunge sa na nas pri hladani hostelu zavesil par z Rakuska /Linz/, nemali mapu a my ano, hahaha. Podarilo sa nam najst solidny a bezpecne vyzerajuci hostel, hned na druhy pokus, za 12 dolarov na noc pre obidvoch je to vyhra. Jedina nevyhoda nasej izby je ze jedine okno vedia na chodbu, ale na jednu noc to staci a nevadi. Na obed sme dostali lahodnu polievku s popkornom - neobvykla kombinacia, ale prekvapivo to islo dokopy. Na veceru sme mali inu delikatnu polievku, tentokrat ukryvala tajomstvo - kuraciu nozicku.


Today was our last day in Quito and then we moved to Latacunga, from suprisingly clean and new main station. We did catch our bus just on time, 5 minutes before departure, so we didnt have to wait. On the contrary the driver had to wait for Stan to get on, cos he was late buying mandarinas. There was a attack of sellers mafia, as we called them. About 15 sellers got into our bus in waves trying to sell pretty much anything, from icecreams to crisps. The driver was cool with that and patiently waited till the last one got off. You have to think that there is some kind of deal between them, but we are getting used to that.

In Latacunga while trying to find a hostal, we were joined by a couple from Austria, who didnt have a map and we did, hahaha. We did find nice and safely looking hostel on the second attempt, for 12 dollars for two per night its a bargain. The only disadvantage in a windov facing a corridor, but for one night we take it. For lunch we had tasty soup with popcorn - it was a very unusual combination, but suprisingly it worked. For our dinner we had again another tasty soup, this time there was a hidden secret in it - chicken paw/foot/.
