Quito, Ecuador
...was a bit dull. It didn't help that Riley's jet lag combined with my energy-zapping cold made us quite the lethargic duo. Though the city did provide us with many public art climbing opportunities. And at the official GPS confirmed equater play with gravity. After a few days, we made a dash for the coast to the "Ruta del Sol". This "Path of the Sun" proved to be quite the misnomer since the fishing villages, surf towns and hyped-up beaches were cloudy, rainy, and dreary. Due to national energy shortages, many towns along the coast shut off electricity and water during daylight hours, furthur dimming (yeah pun!) our Ecuadorian experience. Though we had all the fresh fish our hearts desired. What the equatorial shores lacked in sunny beachline, it did make up for in cheap food. Ceviche.
