Here are the long awaited photos that we promised to put on our site.  Ecuador is truly a spectacular place to see.  Some of the photos truly do not do it any justice.

Now that I know how to upload the photos I shall be working on getting them all up plus new interesting pages for you to read.

Hope you enjoy our photos.

Ciao

Our flight out of Perth first took us to Hong Kong.  We had a stopover for 7 hours before heading off to Los Angeles.  Our flight from Perth left just after midnight and nine hours later we were in Hong Kong.  Without very much sleep we decided to find a Lounge at HK airport where we could rest and shower.  There are several in HK airport but we found The Travelers Lounge good value at $47.00 USD per head.

Included in this price is a 15 minute massage, shower facilities, internet and food and drinks.  Well worth its price.  We also had a long stop over on the way home and did the same thing.

Flying into Los Angeles

It was very early in the morning when we flew into Quito.  After very little sleep we arrived in Quito and stayed at the Quito Hotel.  As tired as we were I could not believe how beautiful the roses were.

Quito Hotel and the magnificent valley views from our room.
