Tomorrow in the early, early morning we will be grabbing a cab to Dulles to catch our flight. Claire, Mary and I board a flight to Panama just after 6:00 AM where we have an 8 hour layover before heading to Quito.
We have made tentative plans to rent a cab for the day in Panama to show us around a bit; including a vist to the famous canal and then a quick trip to the old town of Panama City. We have to negotiate a day rate with the taxi driver at the airport so this should be interesting. I will start at $5 and then half whatever he says next. Should be fun!
Quito this time of year is in the upper 50's with rain half the day each day. It is about 10,000 feet above sea level so the weather stays damp and cool most of the year. But after 4 days in the mountain capital, we will be heading south and down so the temperature will rapidly increase as we go!
Well I can only hope to find a net cafe in the major cities we are in so I can shoot out a few emails and blog a bit, but don't hold your breath on the big posts like the ones from Spain. I am not bringing the laptop this time in fear of not coming back with it.
Need to go run and finish (start) packing and get everything ready for this amazingly adventurous trip...hope to post soon!
