Well, there has been a slight delay to the plans outlined in our last post... we are still in Cuenca, having been here since last Wednesday. Bianca's apparent virus turned out to be nothing less than acute gastroenteritis and our accommodation for the last 4 days has been a Cuenca private hospital, where by chance they have several gastroenteritis specialists. It has been a very unpleasant four days but thankfully we were lucky to be near a very good hospital. Bi has almost fully recovered now, evidenced by the fact that she steadily became a little bossy boots again from yesterday evening onwards!! Today we moved back to the hotel to take it easy for a day or two before we move south, as planned, to Vilcabamba. We have absolutely no idea how Bi became so ill as we have been so so careful with everything.... guess there is only so much you can do and also, that getting sick at some point is part and parcel of this kind of travel in these sorts of countries.
Anyway, we are armed with enough antibiotics to sink a battleship and so it is onwards and upwards from here!!

Hi Bianca and Ash,
Bianca I'm really glad to hear that you have recovered and hope that it's the first and last time that one of you is unwell on this trip.
Your posts have been great to read. I constantly check your blog to see what adventures you have been on and what amazing places you have visited :o)
Take lots of care.
Lots of Love
Cinzia
