Here We Go

It's taken us about a month to settle in, so now Chris and I are starting to venture out and discover Quito.

Our first taste was a night tour of the Centro Historico district, which is basically downtown Quito.

It's incredibly beautiful. And a bit sketchy for tourists. Our tour company actually hired local police officers to follow our group. The crime here isn't violent, but there are plenty of purse snatchings, etc., especially after dark. And it's dark here by 6:30 every night. but with night views like this.. I'm not complaining.
