Random pics of Quito

Mar 11, 2009 22:26

So, tomorrow is when I travel out to the rain forest, and the nature reserve I´m going to be volunteering at for the next four weeks. Internet access is probably going to be way sporadic for the next month or so, alas.

Quito is still an amazing place. I only have a handful of pictures for you because I´ve been too busy going around going 'wow' ( Read more... )

Beautiful pictures.

Enjoy the nature reserve. I hope all goes well.

Thankies... The journey went well, and I've made it here safely.

Thanks for sharing the pics, it looks beautiful - love the cabling in the church photo ;)

Have a wonderful time!

The pics don't even come close to doing the place justice--it's right up in the mountains with houses clustered up and down mountain sides and it looks epic.

Great time is being had, thanks.

Wonderful pictures; envy you the sun and the freedom !!!

Hope the nature reserve holds everything you could wish for. Four weeks isn't long really .... BUT can you last that long without e-mail without going completely INSANE ?!?!?

p.s. I can't plot you on datamap ....

I should hope you can't plot me on dataMAP! I went far enough to get away from it.

Alas, the rain forest really doesn't get sun. It gets ... well, the clue is in the name. And fortunately the emaillessness is not too extreme so am not bonkers yet. It may, however, be only a matter of time.

THankies! And the sun was fab, while it lasted.

The rain forest, however, is full of rain. *g*

At the time I'm posting this it's possible you've not had Internet access for 6 days. I wonder how you are surviving? Glad to see you look like you're having fun and look forward to the rain forest pics when you're back in relative civilisation.

(or not much access - missed that brief last post)

Re: 6 days and counting stray_cat March 20 2009, 00:30:46 UTC

Indeed so! And here I am, in a tiny slow internet cafe in the jungle that opens whenever the owner fancies using his computer. Hope all's well in LCCland!)

It is indeed. Rather jealous of you at this time though. Whilst looking forward to a weekend of DIY, gardening and Exeter City vs Accrington Stanley is good, I'd rather be in a small infrequently open internet cafe in a rain forest - but I suspect I'd miss the dog too much! Make the mosr of it!
