The Devil's Nose
Our "train" from Alausi to Sibambe
Jackie's ready to go
Only gringos would be stupid enough...
...to give up comfortable seats inside the train
Down the Devil's Nose
Hanging over the edge
We twist and wind down the valley
Following the river
One of many switchbacks
Back and forth
Us
A long way down
Slaphead and scenery
Old station
Here comes the other "train"
Turn around at Sibambe
Fiesta - San Pedro de Alausi
Alausi's annual festival
Big parade
Beauty queens too
Colourful costumes
Traditional costumes
And some not so traditional ones
Ancient costumes too
Onlooker
Lots of dancing
Ready for the train ride...
...back to Riobamba
Through city streets
Will that bridge really hold?
Through farms...
...and villages
Just us four (Peter's behind the camera)
Little town on the way
Locals chatting
Beside the highway
From inside the carriage
Another fiesta
