Even the Disney is not afraid Trash boxes placed at the roadside of Ecuador sur

It's like putting garbage in the mouth of that popular person ... .... In Ecuador in South America there was a garbage bin on the roadside for some reason and I admired it. Thanks to that trashcan, the city is somehow bustling. The pleasant scenery is spreading.

Hello,Takuya Sudo @ circle around the world bicycle @ Charridermanis. When I enter a new country, I am surprised by the new discovery. So traveling can not be stopped. Entering Ecuador from Colombia is the same cultural area "Christianity in Spanish", but I did not expect that there is a difference to this extent.

◆ Ecuador's daily life
The national flag, which had been listed as an immigration in Ecuador, was puzzled with Colombia. But it is not wrong. I will enter Ecuador. The national flags of Colombia, Ecuador and Venezuela are similar if you look into it.Gran ColombiaIt will be for an independent history together. However, the time I have been walking as a different country has changed Colombia and Ecuador so far.

After entering Ecuador, the center of the city has changed to "cobblestone", if it is a bicycle it is hard to run.


In Central America it was a cheap hotel "Cabinas" is Ecuador and "Telephone shop". There are things like Japanese telephone boxes placed.


Ecuador's beloved fast food is "sausage & potato". There was even a shop that sold only this.


"Chinese food" which I did not see in Colombia was delicious and it was saved. In the town we operate sales with a sign called CHIFA.


Ecuador was also surprised by the huge "banana". By the way, most of the bananas I had in Europe were from Ecuador.


The size of the beverage is "1.35 liters" halfway. This is to make it possible to buy with one coin (1USD).


It was Ecuador that there were many "strange objects". Is the ballerina placed at the roundabout turning round?


◆ Trash bin
The aesthetic sense of the Ecuadorian who had dissected. This also appeared in the garbage cans throughout the city. The upper part of the trash box is a character, and it is supposed to put garbage in the mouth. If it is a lot of places, I could find something if I walked for 30 seconds. Two at the side of the entrance of the shop. Next to that is a shop, there is another trash box there. This trash box was also in the northern part, the southern part tended to be less. This is also a sight that was not in Colombia.

The most popular character is clown. If there are 10 trash cans, 8 are clowns.


A clown trash box placed in front of a shop.


It was pretty tired from here. I do not want to meet my eyes at night.


When you get used to it, clowns are JapaneseDaikokanoYou will see it.


This character was rich in variety. Uncle version.


A gentlemanly pig has a small mouth. It seems that it will be hard to put in garbage.


I come out there, Donald duck with big mouth. This duck mouth is popular next to clown.


Because your mouth is big, it is useful as a trashcan character.


If there is Donald Duck, Mickey Mouse is obvious. It is difficult to find because the absolute number is small.


Because it is a trash can, it is like this.


Shrek was also sacrificed.


◆ ice cream
The reason for many such trash boxes was in ice cream. These garbage boxes are placed on the eaves of ice cream shops and bakeries. Although Ecuador runs only in the high Andean mountain range, the ice cream was abundant. Ecuador that the shape of the inverted cup was very popular. There was an ordinary ice cream, but I also pursued Ecuador style by following me.

Here is the shape of ice cream peculiar to Ecuador.


It is divided into 4 layers and you can enjoy 4 tastes.


It was strange that there were many sticks stabbed obliquely. Do not these people collapse along the way?


Small size. It is also cute that contains a grain of raisins.


Take out these cups after warming them up with both hands.


Only in this freezer, this ice cream. It is a form of common people of Ecuador.


There are such ordinary ice creams, but the shape of the cup prevailed in price and quality.


Since there is a country "garbage is on the roadside", I was impressed with the garbage can of Ecuador. If it's a character's trash bin, even small children will be happy. Delicious ice creams and surreal garbage boxes were indispensable in Ecuador's journey.
