Arrived Quito

The adventure begins.

Our morning tour takes us to a view in the centre of the city. South is the working people, north is the old town and the industry. Guess what, a lot of traffic in the evenings. East and West are the more expensive parts of town, mainly because of the hills. We then move to the old town and see many of the churches. Unfortunately they are not open to view unless Mass is going on, but we do see a couple. Extravagance!! The buildings remind a little of Macau. On returning to the hotel we head for a recommended restaurant a couple of blocks away for lunch. We order Guinea pig to try. It is fried and a bit dry, but you need to pick. The rest of the afternoon is spent looking around the area and resting (or updating a blog).
