One last post from Ecuador

A little bit more from Quito.  On our sight seeing day we crammed alot in.  Late afternoon took us up to the mountains above Quito.  Quito is up in the top of the Andes mountains and I definitely felt  the difference in altitude.  It is aproximately 10,000 feet above sea level.  As we went higher up, I was glad for a jacket.  By late afternoon the clouds rolled in and we had a little rain.  It was a memorable day.

 On a mountain top with a beautiful crater/valley behind us.  We had to wait for the clouds to blow by to take this picture.

Cool little rock formation.  Don't know what it all means but I liked it.

 A yummy drink we had at lunch, a mora berry (like raspberry) slush with a white fruit(I don't know what it was) slush

 A little llama love

 A tour of Quito at night.  There is some beautiful architecture here.

There was not only rain in the afternoon but in the higher elevations we found a snowy hail, Chad had to make a snow ball.

 This is actually how we spent most of our time in Quito, it's just not that exciting to photograph.  At our Seminar we were taught by our Area Presidency, Elder Uceda, Elder Pino and Elder Waddell along with Brother Steve Allen with the Missionary Dept.  We learned alot and now the trick is to remember it all and how to implement it.
