Trip to Riobamba 2



A street in Quito



The hillsides outside of Quito were absolutely covered in these shack/houses. There was a stark difference between the houses in the city and those just outside of it.


This is Tungurahua, the local volcano. We saw it from this angle when driving through Ambato, the city right before Riobamba. It has been rumbling for the last few days, and in the mornings we can see a light covering of volcanic ash on the cars and other things out of doors.

Yay!
Beautiful country, happy smiles, and Emma's clipboard. Complete with bullet points, I'm sure. =)
