Greetings From Quito

It was an eventful flight here through Bogata. Things went well until we were to leave Bogata, Columbia. Quito was fogged in and so they finally took as to a hotel in downtown Bogata at about midnight. A fine five star hotel it was! We left for the airport at 4:00 AM. In spite of the long night, we are pleased with the great service of Avianca Airlines (Columbian). Meals were great and service was outstanding. We arrived in Quito about 8:30 AM. Checking in to the country went well. We did not have to stop at customs here. Had another breakfast here at the guest house.

We met people staying here who knew some people we knew in Bahrain. Small world!!!

Today we will head to Puyo by car. We anticipate leaving about noon and will arrive by evening if all goes well.

Glad to hear you made the trip without incarceration. We have had about 2" of rain since your departure. Take care Jo and Phil
