Do to a new law, this New Year’s Eve we can continue with our custom of burning dummies on the street BUT we will not be able to use firecrackers, as firecrackers are considered fire weapons.
The police department has started to look and capture producers and sellers of firecrackers. Although, they have not mentioned anything about buyers, the punishment for “HAVING, selling or producing” this deadly weapons without permit may be many from 3 to 5 years of jail without bail and a fine ranging from 1,000 to 3,000 USD.

Quemar Muñecos, Pero No Fuegos Artificiales
Debido a una nueva ley, este fin de año podremos mantener nuestra costumbre de quemar el Viejo en la calle PERO sin fuegos artificiales, debido a que los últimos son considerados como armas de fuego.
La Policia ha empezado una campaña para buscar y capturar a quienes producen y comercializan fuegos artificiales. Pese a que no se han pronunciado respecto a los compradores, la ley penaliza a quienes “POSEAN, comercialicen o produzcan” éstos con cárcel de 3 a 5 años sin derecho de fianza y una multa entre 1,000 y 3,000 dólares.
The Tarabita is a cable ferry to pass rivers and depressions that do not have bridge. We presented thanks to Youtube a video of Baños de Ambato’s Tarabita, the cost by person is 1 dollar.

Calolo, thanks for your comments about our blog. Personally I prefer Montañita, but as we all have different tastes I am going to point out the stronger points of both towns:
Montañita: has the best waves to surf; near to it there are several towns one could visit (what we call the Sun Route); with Guayaquil-Salinas highway open, half the way is going to be safer and without problems; more tourist attractions; and better infrastructure to receive people in new year’s eve.
Canoa: less people visit it, making it quieter; some say Manabí’s women are the prettiest of the country; surrounding beaches are desolated making them more relaxing.
The Waterfalls of the Chazazal sector have about 20 meters of height and they are Located to 30 minutes by foot from the Pallatanga town, in a near forest.
Finally, after 3 years the road Guayaqui – Progreso- Salinas is ready. The new Highway, with 4 lanes will make it easier and faster for those who love the Beach to get close to the ocean. Local authorities are analyzing what will be the toll charge, we should expect something between 1 dollar and 2 dollars.
The Strike in the Road Quito – Ibarra finished last night and the roads were openned again this morning. President Palacio agreed to pay 3 million dollars calming down life forces.

If you wish to travel by car in Ecuador try to have enough fuel and the provisions to arrive at the next important city. All the highways do not have gas stations properly suitable or that accept credit cards.
