Ecuador: Alleged UFO Seen over Lago San Pablo

OTAVALO - A light floating over the surface of Lake San Pablo caught the attention of Anabel Godoy, an Argentinean national, and Reto Schnyder, a Swiss, in the morning hours of Friday, 5 April [2019].
According to both foreigners,who own Samay Toa, a tourist haven located in Araque Alto, it was a UFO phenomenon. According to local residents, this would not be the first time such a phenomenon has been recorded.

"The fact is that my entire family was stunned. It was out of the ordinar. We had never seen a manifestation of that sort in the lake," said Godoy.

The phenomenon occurred at 06:15 last Friday morning.



"We were getting ready to start the day. My husband was making coffee and was the first to see the phenomenon through the bedroom window," Godoy recalled.

The event impressed Schyder, who has been living in Araque for seven years now.

"It was a bright light. My wife, using some binoculars, was able to see that there was no object above the light or on the surface of the lake. It was a light [whose color] was between yellow and orange," he said.

Schnyder says that when he saw the the object the first time, he was some 40 meters from the Araque Water Park on his way to Cachiviro, a trip that takes between 10 and 15 minutes.
Local residents are used to discussing these phenomena. "On several occasions we've seen spherical lights in the sky emerging from Lomakunga," recalls Maria Yacelga, a resident of the community.
For both foreigners, this was the second time they have witnessed phenomena of this sort. The first was at night, when some spherical lights flew over the property they occupy.
