More pics from the road trip

Here are a few more pictures from the road trip, see the previous two blog posts for the trip re-cap. If you ever find yourself wondering where to go on your next vacation, do consider Ecuador, it really does have a lot of things to see and do-none too far from the next, and their official currency is the U.S. dollar.
