Rano sme, ako obycajne vstali a urobili si nase oblubene ranajky - vajicka. Mame so sebou varic, panvicku a varechu takze nieje problem. Celkom tu na vajickach ulietavame a dnes sme ich mali 8 dokopy, ani nam to neprislo asi to je z toho vsetkeho chodenia.
Na najblizsich par dni sme si naplanovali navstevy okolitych, malych, pomerne bezvyznamnych andskych dediniek. Najzaujimavejsie na tychto dedinkach je to, ze sa da vidiet ako ziju obycajni chudobni Ekvadorcania. Nasa prva zastavka bola Pujili. V Pujili sme navstivili velmi pekne namestie s kostolom a miestny trh, kde sme si kupili zvlastne vyzerajuce ovocie a cukrovu trstinu /cukrovou trtinu/, ktora sa zuje a je velmi osviezujuca a sladka. Tiez sme tu videli zatial najhorsieho vyzerajuceho bezdomovca. A potom sme vyrazili dalej.
Dalsia zastavka mala byt Tigua, ale ked nadiesiel cast vystupovat a uvideli pat domov pri ceste a inak nic, tak sme sa rychlo rozhodli pokracovat do nasej dalsej zastavky - Zumbahua /3500 mnm/. Hlavnym lakadlom Zumbahuai je jej vyhlaseny sobotny trh. Podarilo sa nam najst si krasny hotel s vyhladom priamo na namestie, kde sa cela udalost mala uskutocnit. Boli sme tu prvy, ale postupne sa zacali vynarat aj iny turisti - Novy Zeland, Francuzko
a Holandsko, nebola to nahoda, pretoze v celej dedine su dokopy tri ubytovanie a nase malo najlepsi vyhlad. Vecer sa Stanik rozhodol ochutnat miestnu polievku, ktoru varila pani priamo na ulici v kotliku nad drevom. Ja som tejto lakavej ponuke odolala a veru neolutovala. Po prvej lyzicke bolo jasne ze to nebola dobra volba, nechcel ale urazit miestnich takze ju nemohol len tak vratit. Par lyziciek, ked sa miestni pozerali, este do seba dostal, ale na vacsine si pochutnali miestni psy. Ako sam priznal, tak hnusnu polievku este v zivote nemal a prsty ktorymi chytal to maso mu smrdeli aj na druhy den.
In the morning, as usual, we had our favourite breakfast - eggs. We have a travel cooker and a pan so there is no problem. We are quite into our eggs and today we did manage to eat 8 altogether. And it didnt look too much at all, probabably we do walk so much.
For next few days we planned to visit several small local villages in the Andes. There is nothing really special about them, except they are a great example how poor Ecuadorians live. Our first stop was Pujili. In here we saw really
cute square with church and a local market, where we bought some unusually looking fruit and a bag of sugar cane, that you chew and which is very refreshing and sweet. Also we met the worst looking tramp so far. And then we carried on.
Next stop was meant to be Tigua, but when the time to get off arrived and there were just five houses by the road, we decided to continue to our next stop - Zumbahua /3500m/. Zumbahuas main attraction is well known Saturdays market. We managed to find a very nice hostel with a fantastic view over the square. In the evening Stan decided to taste local soup, that was prepared by a local women directly on the street in a huge pot over the burning stove. I manage to resist to such a great offer and didnt regret. After first spoon it was clear that it wasnt a good choice. But because he didnt offend the locals he managed to swallov a few more, when they were looking, but everytime they turn away he fed the soup to the dogs. As he admited, it was the worst soup that he has ever eaten in his
life. His fingers, that touched the meat, were smelly even the next day.
