[Traveling by motorcycle through Latin America] More visits in Ecuador

[Paul]

This is the last post for a while, but I wanted to send out these photos and this last chapter of my report on the visit with Leonor, her friends, and family.

Leonor got her bike ride...a trip to the port and some dust in her hair.

Then it was onward to the north with an over night in Baños, and on to Quito. In Quito, Tyrone and Sofia, friends of Leonor's, showed me the sights of Old Town churches lined with gold, and the incredible Capilla del Hombre (Chapel of the Man), a museum and cultural center designed by Oswaldo Guayasamin, and which also contains his artworks.

Then a trip north to Otavalo and two nights in Ibarra. Here, Daniel and Family had me over for meals and showed me local sights. Very nice part of Ecuador.

Hope all are well,
