It’s our first day in Cuenca and we’re still finding our way around the city. We found a great place for breakfast – Tienda Cafe. Sweet Plantain Waffles, coffee, and fresh squeezed blackberry juice. A great way to begin our day!

We are happy with our studio apartment at Cuenca Suites – the owners, Rebeka (from Cuenca) and Simon (from Denmark) are excellent hosts. We like the location just a little out of the city center but near many restaurants.

The flowers here are beautiful – we’ve never seen glads quite this big!

And, the street art is great! This artist painted around an unattractive gray door!

The weather is refreshing – we are glad we packed light jackets and long-sleeves – this evening it’s raining.
One downside to walking the narrow streets of Cuenca is the fumes generated by big blue busses like this one.

It seems like there is plenty to do here and that we’ll easily fill our time. This evening, we found a fun aerobics class held in a nearby town square. Latin music and dancers in every age group participated! Larry took this video…
