Cuenca

Quenca is famous for it's colonial beauty, that maybe is only matched by Quito. It's pretty cold here and rain is the norm. Streetvendors add some character to the game. They sell a lot of candy, flowers and in the evening they grill meat of all sorts - without side effects. The colonial beauty is not bad, but nothing breathtaking. We ate the best food in town, when we didn't eat at the market. I also met the first swiss guy since 2 months. The nearby river still serves some locals as a "lavandaria". So it was definitly not turisty. The ruins are not worth mentioning but the history museum was ok. The gay hairdresser who cut my hair did it really bad - so now I look like I'm part of the hitler-youth.
