Arrived in Cuenca last night, got a warm welcome from friends Larry and Dona even though she's been sick in bed for the past few days. I'll post a few pictures of them when Dona's up to being photographed. 




















This morning we went shopping at Feira Libre Mercado (Market). This is one of the biggest outdoor markets in Cuenca. 



What a cornucopia of wonderful food.

If you like fruits and vegetables it is a great place to shop. Every kind of fruit and vegetable imaginable can be found here.

Not only fruits and vegetables, but meats of all kinds as well.  


Here is a shot of Michel and Larry. 
Larry is trying to make a deal with the 'potato' guy!!


Ecuador grows more than 500 varieties of potatoes. They have a variety of types noted for their taste, texture, shape and color.
