So, do you have any plans for the weekends?
Yeah, me and my Friends are going to this activity center in the Andes Mountain.
Oh, yeah
You can do everything. It´s a new center, it sound great. We are going to go hiking.
What´s that.
The sport of going for long, often strenuous, walk in the countryside.
Sound a bit tiring. Have you done it before?
No, but I´ve done something similar. Anyway, we´re also going to go cannoing as well. Before you ask, that´s when
you jump and swim down a river canyon. You have to use ropes and special equipment. And maybe we´ll go white
water rafting too in Napo and Pastaza rivers.
It sounds far too difficult to me.
They have lots of things that you could to do too. Like tubing in Mindo. It is the leisure activity of riding on water on
large inflated inner tube.
Go down a river on a tube! Is there anything else?
It´s easy and exciting too. You just have to hold on and enjoy the ride. Or there´s bungee jumping in Baños.
Jump off a bridge on a long elastic band! Me? You´ve got to be joking! Anyway, I´m going away this weekend too.
Thank for you asking.
I was going to ask. So, are you doing anything special? Where are you going?
Ambato! I´m so excited.
Ambato, Wow!
Yeah, It´ll be awesome Ambato has a carnaval festival where people enjoy seeing a beautiful parade full of floats
decorated with fruits and flowers. I am planning to join cultural activities and art expositions. Besides eating
delicious foods and drinks. You know I prefer culture and art instead of extreme sports.
Then I know next time you invite me to a cultural and traditional festival and will invite you to get a tubing or rafting
ride!
Sound great can I just see it from my seat!
