Friday March 14, 2008 Quito Exploration

As we were flying back into Quito we ran into some trouble. The rain on the island actually shut down the airport. It was unbelievable. The roof was leaky and we were all huddling in the one dry area. Then our guide Rodrigo talked to one of the workers and got us into the VIP lounge. There were two British ladies in there and everything else was empty. Dry couches, marble floors, cocktails. A bit ridiculous, but it was nice.

Quito was pretty, although we were there last year. So we headed out to the traditional market to get some cool Ecuadorian stuff like Alpaca gear. That night we ate a a wonderful Andean restaurant and were entertained by these guys playing traditional music. Great last day.
