Casa Foch Bed & Breakfast. Mi casa lejos de casa.
(My home away from Home) This is where I stayed in Quito. Very nice room. Beautiful hardwood floors that were buffed to a shine every day. One interesting feature. I had to call down to the desk every time I wanted hot water. There was always cold, but hot was on demand No additional charge through. There were always two bottles of drinking water as well No, you do not drink tap water outside the US! Looking
out over a small portion of Quito from a restaurant we ate at up on a hilltop. This is another building that I am unable to identify.
If you can help, please contact me. Panecillo Hill This is just one of numerous statues and bronzes
seen
around Quito. Everything from this old bronze to ultra modern sheet metal works.
This
is the Ceremonial Presidential Quarters.
It has a large open courtyard in the center These two Ceremonial Guards stand on these podiums at the entrance to the Courtyard. I never saw them move a muscle the whole time I watched them. In fact I had to look closely to determine that they were real people. They are!
This is the change of guard coming on duty at the Presidential Palace Yeah,
he is smiling, but I am not going to kick him in the shin!
I actually saw very little graffiti in Ecuador.
This chalked image caught my eye
as it appeared to be will done. The artist obviously has some talent.
