Hi Jayanand,
These are great! Very bright and colourful. And the se?oritas are lovely.
I note that virtually everyone has a hat. I wonder what the incidence of 
Basal Cell
skin cancer is from the hot sun at high altitude? Hump Day Hostel - yes I 
suspect
there is a story behind the name.
Thanks for sharing.
Howard

The second and last set of photos from Quito.

Walking around the old city, we ran smack bang into the annual Fiestas de
Quito festival, which goes on for a week or two, culminating in the first
week of December, and which celebrates the founding of Quito in the 16th
century.
