Not much to report today. As I said yesterday, it’s our first really stress-free day since the day before we left. We slept “in,” getting up around 8 am or so. Ate breakfast then found a comfy place to read the day’s news. When it warmed up, we slipped outside to sit on the bench and watch the birds.
We found this comfy place that is above the garden and has a view of the eastern Andes and Quito so we ambled up there and read for a couple of hours.
Then we did the jacuzzi for a half hour, which felt SO GOOD after all the hiking we’ve done. It was a slice of heaven.
We showered, read some more, ate supper and are packing so we’re ready to roll at 4 am to get to the airport for our 6:38 am flight to Miami.
In bed by 9 pm with dreams of a routine flight to Miami, then to Chicago, then to La Crosse where Kelly is going to pick us up around 10 pm
Woohoo! The adventure is nearly over, and it has been the most challenging – physically and emotionally – than we’ve ever experienced in all our years of international travel. We’re patting ourselves on our backs for having done it now as we notice a difference in our stamina, compared to our last trip three years ago to Amsterdam, Croatia and the Czech Republic.
Sweet dreams……
