The flight into Quito was uneventful, as was the ride into the hotel. We are staying in New Quito, a hip area chock full of cafes, bars, restaurants and hotels. The weather is chilly at night (low 50s?), and we sat at an outdoor cafe soaking up Quito while simultaneously soaking up Long Island Iced Teas. The local beer is just called ¨Pilsener,¨ a drinkable and simple well, pilsner.
Today we made it into Old Quito, under picture perfect blue skies and temperatures around 70. Churches, cathedrals, basillicas, cafes, and a very nice set lunch filled up our day. (I really like that they don´t oversalt soup here). Tonight we plan to splurge on a nice meal, and figure out the next step. Until later.
