We had one more day before we returned home from Ecuador (this was the end of November). We stayed in the Windham hotel on the waterfront (Guayquil has lots of waterfront - river and sea - it is a huge port). There are some old portions of the town up a nearby little hill and we wandered around them - this was different than the big-city feel of Guayaquil. One set of steps was numbered - the top one was 443.
