The last vacations, I went with my family to Ecuador. We arrived to

the Nueva Loja City, near to the Colombian’s boundary. We stay in a
hotel in there city for two days. We visited the natural park La Joya,
this place was to fifteen minutes of Nueva Loja and the ticket cost 1,75
dollar for all. We saw many things, animals how the Coatí, also called
“Cusumbo”, birds how the Hoatzin alsa calle “Pava Hedionda”, some
monkeys. The forest was beautiful, it had many ecological ways. The
city, we visited the Parque Pica Piedra and the Parque Banderas and
the Parque Ecológico Lago Agrio was closed for maintenance. The place
that mort like me was the Natural Park “La Joya” because is so
beautiful and near to the city. The food was delicious, we ate Chinese
food, one delicious tipical food that is called Encebollado de Atún, fresh
cherries and sweet grapes. I like so much this travel with my family,
my son was very happy because he can saw one “Cusumbo”.
