Arrived at this small wonder of the world just after midnight. Everything went according to plan. Fernando was there to meet me and it was about an hour to Rumiloma which is on top of a mountain above Quito. At about 10.5k ft. A nightcap of coca tea while sitting in front of the fireplace. Slept fitfully but stayed in bed until 8. Of course it hadn’t occurred to me that cocaine was a stimulant. Until the next day. Breakfast was a work of art. People here are gracious. My meager Spanish goes a long way.
