You probably know this place as well as I do by now

Laura, Alaina and I only had one day in Quito before traveling to Manabí, so we tried to take full advantage.  The required trip to visit the equator took place on Tuesday morning.

Since it was not exactly a sunny day, the clock wasn't working very well.

I balanced the egg!

 We decided to visit the other monument to the Center of the World on this occasion as well.



All kinds of hummingbird benches lined the walkway into the complex.

Okay, those were the girls' pictures.  These are mine, so we'll head back to the first museum briefly.

Welcome in every language

Lowly hangs in the balance.


This house wasn't made for tall people!


Admiring a shrunken head



We've probably got a few repeat flower pictures, but...






Now, let's head back to Museum #2.










I'm a fan of color, so this plaza made me very happy!





Another hummingbird bench

Hey, Alaina, how about sitting on this one for a picture?  
Oops!  Forgot about all the rain this morning.  
Fortunately, she was a good sport and also had on a skirt that dries quickly.

This one's dry!
