Washing Machine Ecuador Style

Ok ladies here it is, this is the deluxe, top of the line Ecuadorian washer! Here at the condos we have one – in fact this has been washing our clothes ever since we have been here. You can see the modern washboard, next to it is the rinse tub and you can tell by the hoses its got water that comes right to it. Now you might be asking what might be so deluxe, top scale about that washer and I can tell you the only other model they have is a rock in the river. So you can see they spared no expense on the facilities here at the condo. There is only one version of a dryer and it does not work well in the rain perhaps you have guessed what it is by now. If you haven’t its a stretched out piece of wire that you hang your clothes OVER (no pins). But I can tell you our personal operator Blanca is an expert par none and the prices you would think are a steal. Adios for now (this post dictated by Dave)

More of the cutie

This is a little better view of the native wear. Her mother cleans things here and has been doing our laundry. She stopped by today to pickup laundry with her little girl. When her Mom said it was ok to take her picture – she got shy and didn’t want to. When the camera came out – well you see for yourself.
