This was a blitz through town. We left Vilcabamba at 8 AM on a shuttle from our hotel, Izhcayluma. The guy dropped us off at the bus station so we could buy tickets for Aluasi, home of the train ride to the "Nose of the Devil". Then we made a Mac dash into Centro Cuenca and took in the sights. Very beautiful place, once again spectacular churches, plazas, music and all kinds of things going on.
Anyway the below church was difficult to get pictures - the domes don't even show up from the front. The blue tiles on the domes are from the Czech Republic. When we tried to go in, the nuns had run everybody out and refused to let anymore visitors in, saying they were tired!
