We managed to get to Quito but geez what a long trip - long and pretty uneventful. Then the drive in the taxi at 11pm from the airport to the "Community Hostel" had enough of a view to show us that we didn't want to spend much time in Quito. Yikes . . .
But the sorry story is that we were exhausted from the trip and from getting precious little sleep that first night that actually LEAVING wasn't a wise idea. For one thing, we hadn't actually decided yet where to go from there.
So instead of heading straight out of town we plodded around Quito all day long in a daze: both foggy headed and me (Starr) with a moderate altitude induced headache. We learned two things in Quito: 1) the Community Hostel is a great place to stay; 2) Quito's not someplace that we would volunteer to visit.
