Our tour of Quito began at the Basilica - part of Old Town, a Unesco World Heritage Site.
This is the Virgen of Quito - the only Virgin in the world with wings. 
This is Hilary's host family - we had lunch with them at a restaurant on Panecillo, where the Virgen of Quito is located.

This is the Basilica de Voto in Quito. The basilica is less than a hundred years old, and reflects the character of Ecuador. Animals on the outside are from the different regions, such as the jungle and the Galapagos. The window shown above represents the 2000 kinds of orchids found in Ecuador...
