Ecuador

I have arrived safely in Ecuador. A very problem free 9 hour flight to Miami and 4 hour flight down to Quito. Miami airport is still a nightmare re herding you around and queues and time for baggage to arrive, but Quito airport was no better and you don´t even get preferential treatment if you are an Ecuadorian, which seems a little harsh. It was strange being in Miami and not flying on to Cayman - I did wave at everyone that is in Cayman - a big hello! I think I am going to be okay at finding people to speak to - I sat next to an Aussie on my flight to Miami who was 2 months into his travels and we swapped books, and I also was given the telephone number of an Ecuadorian business man who I spoke to in the long queue at Quito immigration - I didn´t however let him know where I was staying :-) I have a lazy day planned today and I am off to stroll around quito. Later!
