7/20/10 - finding my stride in Quito

FINALLY. After only 20 days, i feel like i have found my stride. Too bad i leave in 10!

The sun broke, and on a rare day after Spanish school with no plans, I was able to wander and roam as I chose. I hoofed it up to Old Town, and after some nosing around, started to head home before 730 curfew/dinner.

The juxtoposition of the sun and moon at seemingly equidistant places in the sky, the warm sun, the drive thru at McDonalds being empty at 530pm, seeing snow capped mountains in the distance, stopping for a good glass of wine on my way home, and good conversations with family and friends....i am a happy woman.
