A second day at Hacienda Bambusa. In the morning we drove into Armenia to do some shopping and internet. The town was bigger than we had expected and we were pleased with ourselves that we found a parqueadero close to an internet store and large enough for the Tiger.

Along the way we saw bananas, pineapple plants, coffee plants, large numbers of nicely maintained old jeeps being used as taxis, a man on a small motorbike delivering a very large flower arrangement, and a field of pumpkins all painted white !!.

In the afternoon we spent time pouring over maps, guide books, Norm's log and other travelers internet sites developing a route plan for Ecuador. Based on what we discussed Ecuador is looking like a 3-4 week exploration and our return date looks even further off in the future.
