Towns

Hi folks -

We're just flying right through Ecuador...

Right now I'm in Quito. It's a beautiful city enclosed by a cauldron of mountains, volcanoes, and a massive statue of Mary overlooking the city (and my hostel in the Old Town).

Yesterday we had a great view from the bell towers of a Basilica in the middle of Quito. I rang the bells to celebrate the treacherous climb through winding stairs, steps and wooden planks...

Today we're going to enjoy the New Town in the north, ride in the ciclovia bike paths, and eat a 4-course lunch.

Next - to humpback whale watching and the best surf in Ecuador on the Southern coast!

Best,
Jackie
