Some time ago, John Daniel returned from three weeks in Ecuador to his home in Bakersfield, California. We know each other from Schütz & Kanomata, a language school in Santa Cruz do Sul, where I taught English and John was an eager student of Portuguese. The photos below were taken in mid-May 2014, in Cuenca. The texts that accompany the shots were written by John.

Why did the goose go in the store? Because his mistress, an elderly indigenous woman, brought him in there in a blue bag along with other shopping bags. She apparently did not want him to bite anyone.
