Today I took Sandra and Helena to the Cotopaxi Volcano, it was a pleasant day, with the sweet company of the clouds and snow in this volcano that for sure stands as one of the greatests active volcanos in the world.
At first sight,this red giant with white cap impresses and does not cease to impress as we go near it and then go up to the snow.
In the way to the Cotopaxi we have stopped by Café de la vaca for some coffe and milk, and it is aways good.
Getting in there is was a surprise to find the price is now $2 for all people,national or forengers.. i find it cheap, believe it coud cost a little more, for what it is.
Before gettin into the Park, in a farm we have seen 3 llamas, and a pig that looked like a llama, than a dog and a donkey that also looked like llamas.. Near the Limpiopungo Lagoon Sandra, of sharp eyes and mind, have sighted a pair of deers, a most impressive sigth.
We went up the parking lot, that already had snow, at 4550mts and then hiked up to the Jose Ribas refuge, 4800mts, were we had some nice soup. The Cotopaxi was very generous to us this day and we got to see all the north face of it.
When we got down to the parking lot it started to rain,so we didnt go to the Pucara ruins, since we coudnt get out of the car...
The day was fine, the Cotopaxi is aways a beatiful place with a lot of powers of nature in it.
