Thursday, October 30, 2008

After almost a month in Ecuador we are moving on with our lives. Ecuador is a really cool country. More touristy than it�s northern neighbor Colombia, including areas where travellers greatly out number locals, Ecuador packs a lot of cool stuff into a very small package. While in Ecuador we visited historical Quito, lived like monkeys in the jungle, caught some swell on the coast, rode a train on the roof, and hopped around the Galapagos Islands. The Ecuadorian people are truly blessed to have so many great cities and landscapes in their country.

Charis� Top 3

1) The Galapagos - More beautiful than imagined
2) Banos - A relaxed town at the base of a volcano with soothing hot springs
3) Jungle - Bugs, monkeys, heat, and learning about the local culture.

Arik�s Top 3

1) The Galapagos - Sharks, white sand beaches, unique wildlife, and waves.
2) Crazy Train - An experience never possible in Canada
3) Quito - Unique in it�s blend of new and old, modern and indigenous.

Next stop - Peru.
