Living the dream

A highland existence interspersed with regular travels and running a charity in Nepal

Scot and Russians in Ecuador!! 14 Feb 2010


Olga and Oleg arrived in Quito from St Petersburg and went staright to top of the gondola on Pichincha, overlooking the city.....into thin air!!!


There they went horse riding!!

....and also explored the old colonial centre of Quito.



I met then on Sunday evening and on Monday we drove over the paramo and high pass towards Papallacta and the Amazon drainages. Here Olga and I are on the paramo in front of a veiled Volcan Antisana, en route to the Quijos Valley. The Rio Quijos starts on the glaciers of Antisana.
