Hi di hi!!! Or should I say !Hola!
Ok so this blog entry is actually up to date, I am currently in QuitoEcuador!
We got our flight to Panama, which was overnight but the seats were tiny and I had a slightly larger gentleman next to me.... I did not sleep well..... But again it went surprisingly fast all things consdiderd. We landed at 10am and our flight to Quito wasnt until 8pm so we decided to head into Panama City, it was BOILING!! We sat in the Marriot Hotel lobby for quite a long time - it had air con! Then we had a nice long lunch of calzones and salad... then it was back to the air coned Marriot! We were all in jeans and boots trying to make our luggage lighter! But it was a really interesting city, the way in which it was built up was really strange, very high, but very spaced out...
Our flight to quito was only another 2 hours and we got food yay! We found a hostel in quito - with our limited amount of spanish.... I wish everyone would talk slower and I knew more!! But we seem to be getting by ok. Quanto questa????
Today has been our 1st day in Quito - its the 2nd highest city, in either the world or in South America... I forget, either way I ran up and down the stairs in our hostel and was promptly sick afterwards.... oh altitude sickness!! FUN! But after some (VERY CHEAP $2) breakfast I was right as rain and Ive not looked back since! Today has mostly been spent in Quito looking around the old town and the buildings there. Oh yeh, and I should mention that we also managed to book a 5 day tour to the GALAPAGOS ISLANDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Im so excited, I thought it would be too expensive, but I think we can manage it! Were heading off tomorrow and get a nice english speaking guide hotel all food indluded and to look around all the main islands and see all the wildlife!! I couldnt be more excited!!!
Well thats all for now, I shall update you when I return back to the main land!
Lots of love y addios!
