Still in Baños

Finally... A sleep in and a slow relaxing day... Our only commitments today were optional activities and I chose horse riding halfway up a volcano in the morning and canopying in the afternoon. The horse riding was pretty tame as my horse Pinto didnt seem to like going uphill... He didnt have such a problem going downhill but still didnt do more than a trot... The flying fox was also fairly PG rated coz we weren´t allowed to go down in the Superman position... :)

We get to sleep in again tomorrow and we´re looking at finding some more thermal spas or having a massage as there´s place everywhere for them. Even the hotel maid does a one hour reflexology massage for only $10!! Sometime tomorrow we´re also looking at hiring a quad bike ($10 an hour) and cruising around town. Baños is alot nicer and slower paced than Quito with quiet streets and friendly locals. There is also plenty of adventure and relaxation stuff to do here, one could easily stay for weeks and not get bored!!

In the afternoon we are off to Riobamba before getting up nice and early on Sunday to ride the Devils Nose Railway on to Cuenca.
