      Hi Kat. We loved the cruise in every respect. Island Princess is the smallest Princess ship we’ve cruised of many, but more intimate in some ways. Smallest shower we’ve ever experienced. One thought: If physically able to handle the walking, do the Bruge excursion. Tour buses not allowed, so you have to walk from the drop-off point. Mrs. Austin could not handle it, so Finnish Countryside and Loppem was our next best option. Ask away if you have questions. Bill

    Very nice job on your video! My gf "moved" to Ecuador in 2015, ended up in Cuenca at Casa Cuencana for a couple months before getting her own place. She does come up here to FL for 3 or 4 months during our winter season, otherwise she loves Cuenca, too! I have been there a couple times and understand totally why people love it so much! But to be honest, IF I were to move to Ecuador, it would be to Quito! Much more to do there, more shopping opportunities, and i think maybe somewhat of a drier and slightly warmer climate than Cuenca. But aside from that, there are tons of non-stop flights from MIA or FLL to Quito, would not have to deal with taking a bus or other flight to Cuenca! My gf normally flies into Guayaquil, then takes a bus or minivan to Cuenca, a 4 hour drive through the Cajas mountains. And if it's dark and rainy then, that can get pretty sketchy, LOL! I also want to congratulate you on the production of your video, it was very nicely done! Creating a video from still photos that holds viewers interest means there has to be some movement in them, not just a static photo sitting there. And even a slow fade into it, or away from it, or whatever, creates that motion in a static photo! I just subscribed, I will check out more of your videos, and keep up the good work!

    20:49 La confección de los sombreros de paja toquilla tiene un trasfondo de explotación laboral: niños y mujeres tejen a diario estos ejemplares por una paga miserable (1.50 o 2.00 $ la unidad) por parte de los distribuidores y almacenes de Cuenca que a su vez lo venden previo un tratamiento de planchado y tinturado por valores que van desde los 15$ hasta 30 o más. Estas personas tejedoras adquieren enfermedades por esta actividad de desviación de la columna, de los riñones, y pérdida constante de la vista.
