More From Quito

The cathederal above is located on one of the many hills in old town Quito. We were not able to visit the inside, but the exterior is every bit as grand as many cathederals in Europe. People are waiting for the procession to come by.
We continue to have download problems with pictures. The pictures today give an idea of the huge crowds as well as the length of the Good Friday Procession in Quito. The picture above shows that one can not see to the other end of the procession. Sidewalks are 6 to 10 deep on both sides with observers. A pick-pocket's dream come true!!!

I am in awe of the image of that cathedral. It certainly appears to rival many cathedrals in Europe. The procession is impressive also in its length as well as the interest it draws from the observers.
