For our last three days in South America we decided to take the plunge and have some Spanish classes. Our Spanish teacher (Jaqui, see middle below) was excellent and we both now speak fluent Spanish (
many thanks to the Baird family).
Quito was a fun city due to the annual "founding of Quito" celebrations, leading to marching bands and lots of activity.
As the curtain came down on our explorations through South America we enjoyed some cerviche (the national dish of Ecuador, a cold fish snack made with chilli and limes, delicious

Saying our last (Spanish) farewells to South America we took the plane to another continent vowing to come back and check out the countries we missed at a yet to be decided date...
