Monday March 25/13  update #403
Bella took her third crack at her own residency permit this morning.  God help them if they had tried to find something else wrong with her paperwork again!  There was supposedly one minor error in a three-letter word that they decided to overlook and accept her documents.   Now there is the interminable wait for the final decision.
I had a horrible night but got up and did my Internet chores anyway them looked outside and grabbed the phone.  Paul had mentioned that he wanted to get some more Cuenca skyline shots and the day was shaping up nicely with blue skies so he agreed to jump on the #16 with me. 
We headed on the milk run to the northwest corner of the city, literally opposite where we live and it took about an hour.  We walked even further and were actually 3 doors from being on the Cajas mountainside, no more Cuenca.  We took a few general interest shots because there really wasn’t much of a city view from there then we walked back and caught a bus to just above the Catolica University.  We hopefully got a few decent skyline shots for you.   It is really hard to say you have a skyline shot if Immaculate Conception’s blue domes aren’t in evidence.   They are the center and the icons of this city.
The skies began to threaten so we caught the next #16 just as the thunderstorm began.   Most of the rain had subsided by the time I got home but the heavens opened again very shortly so it is possible that Paul got pretty soaked on his last little stretch home.
That was today’s excitement.   Hugs to all.  Please see all new photos at http://souvenircuenca.blogspot.com/
