Day 322 - Quito

(Ursula) We were all set to move on, but—no surprise—the boys spotted yet another promising fishing river. Of course! What else was new?

While they were off trying their luck, Ellen and I kept ourselves busy cleaning our “homes” and doing laundry. By the afternoon, we returned to Quito, this time loaded with nine more trout and a dozen wild Boletus mushrooms—quite the successful haul!

On the way back, we stopped in Cayambe for a cold beer and a discussion about our next steps. Gregor & Ellen wanted to stay another week in Ecuador before heading to Colombia, while Heinz and I were eager to continue toward Venezuela. However, we all agreed that traveling together would be much safer, so we decided to stick around a little longer and wait for them.

We fired up the grill, back at the German Humboldt School, and feasted on fresh Rainbow trout, then eventually crawled into our cozy sleeping bags well past bedtime. Another adventure-filled day in the books!
