Recreation in the Neighborhood

Immediately behind (from our direction) the recreational park is the main bus terminal for Puyo.The picture above shows this terminal. There is another terminal across town too. You just have to know where you are going and go to the right terminal. The one pictured has busses going to Quito so this is where our five hour ride ends or starts when we come and go to or from Quito.
We often tend to overlook the familiar in our neighborhood the longer we are here. So Sunday afternoon we walked around taking a few pictures. Three blocks from where we live we have this large recreational park. the picture above shows this huge water slide. They have other areas for volleyball (carry ball as I watched them) and basketball as well as a couple of tennis courts. The park is about 2 square blocks of space. The only cost is for the pools and waterslide; $3 for adults and $1.50 for kids. We attempted to download more pics but there is a download problems some where.

I note on the bus depot the sign which advertises MICRO ALASKA. What is the relationship to the name as I see tables outside.
The water slide is appears to be quite grand and nicely done. The sign with the fish and the crayfish is really a work of art.
