Second Day in Quito
Wonderful breakfast at Siera Nevada hotel this morning. Croisant, fresh fruit, cafe con leche, and a smoothie. Talked a taxi driver into a tour of the Old City. Nice, but one needs several hours to really enjoy all there is in the Old City.
The picture is from Independence Plaza in Old Town. The monument celebrates Ecuador´s independence. Behind that is the President´s Palace. In front of all that is a tourist. Sorry, but I´m always going to look like a tourist. I´ll advise all my CITTI Tour friends to walk ahead of me or behind me.
Dinner tonight at the Magic Bean.
