Day 30, Sarchi



Thursday, January 10
Day 30
Sarchi

We took the buses to Sarchi, the next town from Grecia.  Sarchi is known for its wood carving, furniture making and painted carts.  We wandered about in some furniture shops checking prices.  The furniture they make is very high quality and very beautiful.  We also stopped in one of the cart making shops. 



They had several new carts on display.


They also had some old well-used carts.



It is hard to imagine loading up a cart full of coffee and taking it on a multi-day trek across these mountains to get to the coast.
