Friday was a full day of exploration

I visited a newly-establish zoo--those pictures next blog-- and another interesting museum:

The casa where three floors are dedicated to the museum.

There are pieces of antique furniture (have you ever seen a longer couch?), 

carpet and an interesting chandelier:

There was a display of a multitude of dolls in indigenous dress; these are just a few:

 

 

 

In another section, shawls:

And wonderful art (but not a good picture), but you can see the vivid colors:  

A ceramic by Vega

 

There was much more; many examples of various art forms from many areas of South America.  You'll just have to visit Cuenca to enjoy the rest!
