Here's one last set of photos that marked the time in Ecuador. Enjoy!

Sunday, November 19, 2006

That's it. For some odd reason I didn't take any more pictures, despite spending another day and a half in Quito. It's not like we did anything special that day. Just last minute shopping (we went to the mall, not exactly a picture worthy event) and packing.

The adventures of Guillermo en Ecuador are now finito. Hope you enjoyed!

Using myself as a scale, I feel this emphasizes the sheer size of the crater. It is big. I am not. October 24, 2006.

Me, with a big, silly grin, in front of the crater. Despite how it may look, I was not photoshopped onto a fake background. I really was there. October 24, 2006.
