Quito for four days.

Seems like breakfast is included wherever we stay but sometimes you are actually hungrier after you've had their breakfast.
Took a cab into the old town and wandered around aimlessly, as I did not know what to see or do in Quito,  sometimes the lack of planning bites you.
Then you figure it out the next day and realize you saw what you needed and I can't look at another Catholic Church unless I am personally escorted by the Pope himself. The Old Town is pretty neat and being a Sunday there were lots of locals out and about and was quite entertaining listening to the guitar players and the one old duck bugling in the square through a Kudu horn.

For some reason I just could not stay awake and would have forty winks every day,  so weird and would sleep through the night.
Dinners consist mainly of rice and some form of potatoes and either chicken or
 'steak' , which in most cases are maybe a quarter inch thick and cooked to a boot leather toughness and a little salad. Bananas are a common dish served and cooked in numerous ways and somewhat tasty, never knew you could do so much with a banana and at the market I got ten huge bananas for $1.
Charmain spent the following day in bed and I did research as to where to go next. Thought of going to the Galapagos but turned out to be so expensive for what you got I could not justify it so bagged that idea.Besides C would have been sea sick the entire time, that was the main reason why we didn't go, come to think of it. The last day we did the cable car and went to  a scenic spot above the city  and walked down the hill into Old Town for the final time. The place is fairly clean in general for a South American town, however there was a fair amount of dog kak you had to avoid walking on the stone roads and sidewalks.
