Ecuador Transportation System

There are many different ways to travel around Ecuador. See if you can guess which of these I have used...
#1 Horsey!

#2 Scary open basket cable car
#3 White water Rafting#4 "Traditional" horse and carriage, complete with driver on mobile phone
#5 Roof of a train!
#6 Hiking (on a 30cm ridge)!
Did you guess correctly? Thats right, I have been on all of them except for horse and carriage. It simply is not dangerous enough for me.
We took a horse tour around Villacabamba, with lots of Galloping. Yikes! Crazy cable car across the river in BaƱos. Flipped the 6man raft going down the same river after a night of rain. That got the adrenalin going! We rode the roof of the train for 5 hours to the Nariz del Diablo. (Devils Nose). And yesterday I was hiking on a foot wide ridge. Lucky the wind wasn´t blowing.
Ok Im heading up to Columbia in a few days, probably by rocketcar or electric rollerskates....
