Before going to Peru, we made some detours...
We went to Ambato to get some ingredients for a recipe for a super-repellent against evil mosquitoes but we found a tarot games. As well as the book Huasipungo by Jorge Icaza. We also watched a very funny telenovela (soap opera, there's TV everywhere here, especially in restaurants), La Rosa de Guadalupe, where a young girl had to tell her parents she was pregnant. A commercial later, her parents were marrying her to the future father, and after the following commercial, she was already giving birth! Genius! We also saw a product to stimulate the vagina with Lindsay Lohan's face on it! (My statistics are about to skyrocket!)
We then left to Coca mais but stopped in Tena, in order to be sure we could find a place to sleep. Tena is cute.
The morning after, we gathered information about the trip from Coca, Ecuador to Iquitos, Peru. We had a panic attack and rushed to take the bus to Coca, a town where many petroleros (oil workers) pass by, where everything is expensive, and not necessarily better. We didn't find that town interesting, but hey, we could feed the monkeys living by the port with peanuts!
The following day, to get ready for mosquitoes, we prepared our super-repellent and gave in to the popular belief that mosquitoes don't like vitamin B-filled blood, injecting ourselves with it into the butt several times (I'll tell you right now: it does not work). As soon as I manage to upload the pictures, I'll add them here!
We left very early the day after, to start our journey to Iquitos on boat...
