Cuenca Street Scenes

Me gusta mucho Cuenca.  I  like taking my camera with me on my walk and capturing street scenes especially street entertainers. In the video below one young man is juggling machetes and another couple is entertaining the traffic juggling their top hats.

8 Weeks In Cuenca

Sharon and I are fortunate that our move from Oregon to Cuenca went so smoothly. We rented a beautiful apartment 20 meters from the Yanuncay River. On our walks we can experience the daily mood of the river.  A new Cuencana friend's son one day described the river as "angry".  We see people washing their clothes and fishing almost every day. I'm also fortunate to be able to walk everyday into El Centro ( Old Town).  I see the beautiful churches, the ongoing construction and the street entertainers.

In the next couple of posts I'll try and paint a picture of the city's entrepreneurs.  Enjoy the video.
