Bus It

Hey everyone, Lori here. (Finally!) When people are traveling I always wonder, well sooo what are you doing everyday? What is a typical day like? So I thought I'd give you a quick summary of day 3... this is how it went down:

-Leave Tena
-Get on a bus
-Sit in front of a drug dealer who keeps insisting (to the point of screaming to the bus driver) that I take my glasses off, because my eyes are like butterflies...
-There seem to be an unusually large quantity of smelly people around us
-The bible man is sitting near by asking to watch Titanic because he's a romantic man, which is a ridiculous request...(refer to Laura's Jean Claude Van Damme blog)
-After 7.5 hours we arrive to Riobamba
-Take our approximately 50-60 lbs of luggage each off the bus and try to find food. (Is someone going to rob us?) It's Sunday night. Nothing is open. We settle for bread... our only nourishment for the day.
-Get on another bus to Loja (11 hours). This bus was clearly made for midgets. (What is that smell? Did someone bring their trash on the bus?)
-Arrive to Loja 7:30 in the morning... to find out it's a holiday and everything is closed.

Lesson`s Learned:
1. Check our you surroundings before sitting on the bus (you dont want to get stuck with a high drug dealer, or preaching missonary for 7 hours... you definitely don't want the combination of the two.)

2. 19 hours of traveling is too long. Plan better.

3. Don`t visit Loja during a holiday.
