+===== First auto accident =====
+July 31, 2013
+Getting out to do my business  with the visa  today  - I had my first auto accident - hopefully the last. The nice cabdriver saw a pretty lady waiting to cross in crazy traffic - so what does he do? He stops and motions her to cross. She was cute I must admit. No sooner she had beamed a smile and crossed past us that BOOM we got hit in the back.  Funny thing I was about to quip that it was worth doing for such a pretty lady. I have now changed my judgement on that. I am proud to say that I emitted a curse in Spanish  - such as "Aye caramba - hombre!"  probably more appropriate in Mexico. Then I had to sit there for 20 minutes as the two drivers went at it. The other guy in a  rather new Honda and a woman in front went ballistic and came over cussing and cursing at my driver who seemed pretty lame in comparison. The other guy kept yelling the  brake lights on on the cab did not work. Some kind of police or ranger who was walking by fortunately helped keep the two guys apart, preventing an escalation to a fight.  They tried the brake  lights and they did not work - but them we has just got smacked in the rear. The other guy among other things declared that he was 70 years old and knew what he was talking about. I was rather surprised because he did not look that old ( wait a bit: that is my age!) , and it was he that seemed to want to instigate a fight; and he was a much smaller guy - but full of anger and vinegar. I think this was a case of the defensive loud bark gets away - sometimes. The security guy seemed to take the side of the other guy, and kept telling my driver that when you are at fault it is better to be quiet and let the other guy vent a bit. A fellow cabdriver stopped to assist my guy - how true of all brotherhoods!  There are so many cabs in this town and the drivers drive so crazy, but quite well too -  that I suspect they meet such confrontations quite often. We all left the scene without exchanging a scrap of information. Now I am waiting to see if my muscles are as tolerant and quiet as I was. I guess I'll  know in the morning!

+My name is Ken Johnson. My wife and I have lived in Ecuador almost a year and a half. We love Ecuador and consider ourselves to be lucky to be retired here. We have lived in Cuenca and La Mitad del Mundo near Quito. We are now moving to Macas. Perfect weather, wonderful people, small town life, practically no crime, and hardly any expats. I am willing to share my experience moving to and living in Ecuador and answer any questions you may have. Real cost of living, medical care, crime, weather, residency visa process, why you should live in Cuenca, why you should not live in Cuenca, the real truth about living here and why Macas is Ecuador's undiscovered paradise. I am not selling anything. My way of "paying it forward."
