Photomania

I am taking advantage of the fast connection I have here in Riobamba and posting more pictures.


In this picture, Juan Carlos (son of one of the women who works at Shangri-La) is drinking chicha de yuca, the traditional Quichua drink. Even though he is making a face, he drank the whole cup. I always drank a bit but could never drink more than a few sips.


A Konga ant climbing on a bird of paradise. A bite from a Konga is very painful and the pain lasts for 24 hours. Luckily I never experienced this.
