03/13 Turns out that the hill leading into Canar didn’t end for another 5.5 miles. Found that out when I left this morning. It was downhill almost all the way to Cuenca after that. Raising my seat didn’t help my knee as much as I thought. It’s kind of killing me today.
Cuenca is a beautiful city. I kind of wish I could stay another day but I don’t have time (thanks crappy Ecuador tourist visa policy). Tomorrow I’ll be heading down toward the coast.
