Quito - Not OK TO Miss City

What a beautiful city!  Along our travels we met a couple of groups that had been to Quito before we met up. Most told us that we wouldn’t be sad if we missed it. We will let the pictures from our afternoon walk through old town speak for themselves.





The rest of our tour today included a trip to a volcano where people farm in the crater (they are not allowed to overnight there though), a stop at the "Center of the World" (we can confirm water does twirl different directions depending on which side of the equator you are on), they also have a shrunken head or two as part of the stop, and a Funicular that takes you to a peak of  13, 400+ feet.  It's an beautiful park where you can hike and mountain bike ride too....if only we knew!
