Quito

 Hola from internet intermittent land. This may be difficult....  I forgot to bring a few things- someone who knows Spanish, someone who can fix my technical issues and someone who has a PCR test kit in their back pocket.  Having difficulty uploading any pictures.  


Actually, the good news is that, as I have not quite figured out my new camera, there are hardly photos worth uploading.  Just to prove I am in Ecuador-


Well, that is Quito.  Am heading into the Andes backcountry to do some hiking.  I am sure the elevation won't be a problem as I have almost been able to get up to 2 flights of stairs in my Quito hotel without stopping.  Quito is 9400' but Andes go up from there.  They are just massive here.  Maybe I will hire a lama.
