Quito

We arrived to Quito after a long long way from Baños.  The way was blocked because of the heavy rain, so we had to go through a city called Tena, a bypass which took us 9 hours instead of 3.

In Quito we went to see a museum related to the equator and the phisycal things that related to it. We`ve seen how the water goes down a sink at both sides of the equator, and right on it. We also balanced an agg on a nail, another phennomenon caused by the equator. Finally we had a nice Shawarma in the center.  Tonight we are already leaving, but it was a nice short visit to Ecuador`s capital.
