I have already visited Otavalo once, but only for the morning, a city mostly known for the huge market that takes place in the city every Saturday, where everything from Alpaca scarfs and hammocks to bracelets and food are sold. This is definitely the place for buying your souvenirs, if you ever go to Ecuador.
Besides from visiting the market and catching up with Felix, the volunteer living near Otavalo, we also visited Parque Condor, displaying lots of birds from all over Ecuador. But only one Condor, even though the bird park takes its name from this bird.

Being in Ecuador is loving thecrazy group photo more than the normal one... At være i Ecuador er at holde mere af fjollebilledet end af det normalle gruppebillede... |
Fra d. 18.-20. december tog jeg til Otavalo sammen med Rebecca, for at besøge en af vores venner.
Jeg har allerede besøgt Otavalo tidligere, men kun i et par timer. Byen er mest kendt for det kæmpe marked, der finder sted hver lørdag og du kan købe alt fra hængekøjer og alpakkahalstørklæder til armbånd og mad. Dette er helt klart stedet at købe souvenirs i Ecuador.
Udover at besøge Felix og markedet, besøgte vi også Parque Condor, der har fugle fra hele Ecuador, inklusiv en enkelt andeskondor, der har givet parken sit nacn.
