Apologies to our faithful followers. Some of you may have heard that we went through a mid-stream change of course. If you haven't, a lot has happened and I promise there will be full disclosure, but for now it's catch-up time.
Stay tuned to future posts to find out where we are...
February, 2012
After 8 weeks, it was time for nephew/cousin David to head back home so we all piled into a bus and went to Quito to see him off. We decided to make it a three day excursion to check it out.
La Basilica de Quito is not only the tallest steeple in South America, but it's near the top of a very tall hill. In a city that's already almost two miles above sea level and in the middle of the Andes...well, you can imagine. The most impressive part was not the views however, but the "freedom" extended to visitors, and not a lawyer in sight. I'll let the pictures say the rest...

With shaky legs, finally to the top. What a view! |
And there was still time to endulge an ancient
Scholtz/Godber farewell tradition: Sopa de Chicken Feet.
I was sad to see my farewell tradition upstaged by the reptiles at the Quito vivarium.
