Impressions of Quito:-Pretty
-Distinct. It's not a tourist town. There are tourist places, but there's more to the city than just that. Parks, an impressive public transit system, an "old town" section recognized as an UNESCO world heritage site & neighborhoods stretching up & down the valley all in the shadow of at least one volcano.
-You can't drink the water.
-You can get photocopies, laminated cards, & keys made on the sidewalk of Avenida Pichincha around the corner from our hostel.
Ellie wants me to make it clear that I was talking about "not returning to" certain businesses & restaurants not the whole city in my last post.
More later,
