Centro Historico

My favorite part of this picture is probably the guy in the Ozzy Osbourne tshirt. Flash back to Senior year at Loomis.
More protestors.

There was a protest outside of the president´s house while we were there. In this picture you can see all of the policemen lined up and the protesters walking toward the house.


While we were walking down the street, my teacher pointed out this porch of an artist who lives in Quito. He created these figures as a re-enactment of a scene from Don Quixote. This is the angel that is said to watch over and protect the city of Quito.

I have Spanish class everyday from 2-6 PM and sometimes it gets a little boring to sit one on one with a teacher for four hours straight. Yesterday we decided to go to El Centro Historico for part of class which is an area of the city where there are a lot of pretty churches and some touristy things to see. This is La Iglesia San Francisco.
