You know what I did last weekend...

Alright, mis queridos...one last weekend update to share with you some sights, some adventures, and a little bit more of Ecuador :)


An incomparable sunset over Quito with a view of Volcan Cotopaxi
Friday, we were all feeling the need that comes for celebration with the end of a TESOL course week. So, we headed - Brianna, Lindsay, John, Raed and myself - to the Mariscal for a real dinner of our choosing, and ended up at the Magic Bean, como siempre.

There are a few reliable things here, actually. The weather is not one of them. 
But the Magic Bean will always be the best choice for dinner in la Mariscal, 
TESOL will always be stressful (even right to the very end), 
the altitude will hit you every time you walk uphill, 
my sister and her boyfriend will get into at least one nonsensical fight every week, 
every other taxi cab driver will try to overcharge you, 
and the buses will always fill la Avenida America with the unavoidable stench of diesel fumes.
