Day 322 Quito and the Equator 23 December 2012

We took the morning to explore the historical center of Quito after a nice breakfast with a deep fried plantain ball stuffed with cheese.
 
 
 
 
The colonial center was charming and the city with its candy shops crowded and churches full was clearly getting ready for Christmas.
 
 
 
 
In the afternoon we took a taxi to a small attraction park right on the equator, where we spent some time on 0’0’0.
 
 
 
In the evening we took a 3 hour bus to Baños.
We thought we were going to stay at a quaint hostel but it was quite a disappointment - Martijn didn’t even fit in the bottom bunk bed! We stayed for the night but quickly canceled the rest of our stay.
