• Day 319 - Otavalo again

    March 15, 1975 in Ecuador

    (Ursula) Today we showed Gregor & Ellen the Otavalo Indio Market (although we have already seen it earlier). They also liked it very much.

    Gregor bought a pair of earrings and a brooch for Ellen with a typical white blouse. I purchased a necklace with old Inca stones and traded my little (silver-plated) ring for Indio clothing. We had intended to visit the market in Ibarra afterward, but none of us felt like visiting another market today.

    Instead, we drove to Laguna San Pablo for fishing. However, the terrain around the lake wasn’t easily accessible because of reeds. We spent a cozy evening together at the Laguna and stayed there overnight.
