Hotel Dann Carlton Quito, Sunday, October 13, 2019 [Quito, Ecuador]

After a slight misadventure through the portals that involved a very surprised Beaker, a show full of Muppets, and Anakin being shot from a cannon (he's fine, but his hair is ruined), the Fandomites arrived in Quito, Ecuador in the late afternoon, which was not enough time to go very far in their explorations, but enough to hit the Parque La Carolina, a 165.5 acre park in the center of Quito and a five minute walk from their hotel, the Dann Carlton Quito. Despite its location near the equator, the temperatures are very fall-like today, hovering around 72F (22C) until it cooled down even further when the sun went down at 6.

Explore the city or just the hotel! Your fall break has begun!

Nina, her diary in tow, wandered dreamily through the park for a good few hours, stopping to listen to musicians and watch street performers as the mood took her, and picking up food at a few of the vendors before settling herself down under a tree near the boating lake and just... enjoying the afternoon.

What a lovely, lovely place.
