ecuador: transportation

when traveling, there are many modes of transportation. let's begin with the photo below. this is us on a bus. this how we spent most of our time traveling. my favorite trip was going from guaya to vilcabamba which entailed an overnight, 10 hour bus ride. that was fun. especially when we were right next to the bathroom and the guy in front of me took his shirt off and reclined so he was pretty much in my lap.

this is us on the bus headed, er, somewhere. don't remember. but i do remember being sunburned, thus the aloe.


or one can travel in a rented van...


a pirate ship is always a good way to traverse the seas...


naturally, horses are always a good option...


but let's not forget about our dear taxi driver. who wouldn't want a ride with this fellow?


and my favorite, bike riding. this is us going through town in vilcabamba. i think only two of our bikes had legit brakes which was fun when we went downhill...
