Well, as evidenced in the first three words of todays post I'm sure you'll agree that my journey to fluency is well under way.
On Monday morning, the sun was shining and the sky was a perfect azure blue, an ideal day to ride the Teleferico, the multi-million dollar sky train that takes you 2.5k up the flanks of Volcan Pichincha to the top of Cruz Loma.
I'm really glad that we got there early, before the crowds and the clouds descended.

After a quick lunch stop back at the hostel we went for our first Spanish lesson, it was exhausting - Beer o'clock couldn't come quickly enough today.
At 7:30pm we met up with Mike, a fellow traveller from the hostel and went for sushi which was superb - it was Abby's first real experience of it and she loved it!
With the rest of the week being dominated by Spanish lessons I'll look forward to updating the blog when we return from Otavalo on Sunday. We're taking the two hour bus trip to Otavalo on Friday afternoon so that we can visit what is considered to be the best craft market in South America on Saturday.
I know it's chilly back in the UK but I hope you all have a great week.
