My favorite part was that the native people who lived there 1500 years ago KNEW they we in the middle of the world, based on the sun and the stars
Gabriel took this picture of the mountains, from the middle of the world. He is enjoying the camera.
On the way home, I took pictures from the bus. The middle of the world (and all that we have seen of Quito) is not glamorous. Most buildings are rundown or being repaired. Some are new, and they are behind guarded fences. There is graffiti almost everywhere - some commissioned, some not.
