Leaving Ecuador

The days in Quito have not been as eventful as we might have desired, but we have carried out some important tasks. We sold Anitas bike for 220 USD (New price: 385 USD). Eiriks bike is now totally dismounted and packed into something American Airlines might accept without charging us 250 USD (as they have threatened us to do). Eirik is very pleased to have a bike in the Styrian paradise Bad Aussee.

Anita gave some clothes she does not need anymore to a very nice woman, who gave us some yummy pastry in return. We are taking farewell with good and cheap vegetarian food, fruit juice stands and pollerias (grilled chicken). Bonus for our last day: We finally found a internet place selling coffee (even most of them are called names such as coffenet etc). Yesterday, we dropped into a large mall, and are very happy to avoid the christmas chaos you all are exposed to at the moment.

The tourist project of the day: Basilica del Voto Nacional, built in the 1900 century

Our plane departs Quito at 10:20 tomorrow, flying over Miami and London. But hey, Austria here we come!

Tick-tacking the time left
