Getting to know Quito...

The river feeding the baths (not hot, I think it´s mixer)
The basic idea... there was another picture of clay but it isn´t showing up

Rooftop

Hello all


Just a quick update of the last few days. We´ve been busy with Spanish but took Sunday off from classes and went to Pucallapta with some other students, which are hot springs about 2 hours outside of Quito. They were absolutely fabulous, the country was beautiful (not marred by large hotels or other concrete structures) but the pools were developed enough that they were very comfortable. The bus ride back was an eye-opener... 2 hours standing up on a very crowded bus on pretty crazy roads. But definetly a great day on the whole.


I woke up a little sick today, unfortunately, and have spent most of the day resting. Right now Terminator 2 in spanish is on TV and has become a hostel-wide affaire. Even though being sick sucks, it´s nice to be able to take TIME to get better.

Above are a few pictures of the baths, and one of the rooftop of our hostel
