Volcanic ash, not snow.

Thank you for swimming by, random naked dude. 

¡Qué rico!

Homemade empanadas and juice of some sort.

Breakfast on the side of the mountain was nice

...until the llamas came.

Hotel Quito. First night in Ecuador. 

Baños, Ecuador

A few shots from Ecuador. Just got back to this bitter cold nation a week ago and have been editing away. These first two shots are from the basilica in Baños, a city of about 12,000 that's tucked away in the mountains on the base of the volcano Tungurahua (toong-oo-raw-wah, more or less). I spent the earlier part of my trip here until we got booted from the hostel and fled to the beach.
