Laguna Cuicocha, Cascada Peguche

We spent our second day of this trip with our guide, Andres, and saw a gorgeous lake in a volcanic crater, Languna Cuicocha, which included a quick boat ride around the lake. Then we headed to the cute town of Cotacachi for lunch, followed by a trip to the Peguche waterfall, which was pretty but very crowded. After a quick dinner back in Cotacachi, we caught a taxi back to our hacienda. The road was so rocky(and we had so much to eat at dinner) that we had to get out for a bit so that the taxi could make it up the steep hill without us weighing him down.

We were looking forward to a good night of sleep in our new room. Unfortunately, our new room was right next to where the owners tied up their dogs at night and the dogs barked non-stop all night. Oh, and not shockingly, in the morning, our shower didn’t work. Despite how lovely everyone at the hacienda was, we decided to check out that day.Læs mere
