day 2 in Cuenca

Dad trying on hats.

Because of the flight hassle this is Saturday.

Day 2 started with a Grandpa Evans breakfast. We walked around did some window shopping and tried some local snack shops. At 2:30 P.M. we took our candy and walked to the boys orphange, ages 5-12 years. After some fantastical stories about different colors of M&Ms turning the eater into certain animals, we caught a taxi and went to the older girls' orphanage where the same stories were told with slight variations. We also had blue raspberry "blow pops" which dad told them if they eat it too fast it will turn their noses blue. One of the youngest girls (maybe 8 yrs.) asked Kelsey, who was translating, if it was a joke (she thought it was but just in case, Kelsey of course said it was). Dad then sang the 'frito bandito' song which the girls enjoyed immensely, even when he lunged at them.
