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!

"He's not even on this trip!" Anakin whined.

"Then, uh, how'd that happen?" Kitty asked, going directly against the narrative direction not to.

"The gnomes are out to get me," Anakin said.

Kitty paused for a moment.

"Anakin, I'm a little worried about you right now."

Anakin sighed. "Yeah?"

"'The gnomes are out to get me?'" she repeated.

"Okay, when you say it, it does sounds a little nuts," Anakin agreed.

Kitty nodded.

"Do you need anything?"

"A day that didn't include being shot from a cannon into a group of waterskiing chickens?" Anakin asked.

"That's not in my power set," she said. "Maybe a drink?"

"Maybe two?" Anakin replied with a tiny smile.

She nodded. "What kind?"

"Strong ones," Anakin said. "Lady's choice otherwise."

That's right, he wasn't a Caritas regular.

"That's how you get tequila with me," she warned.

"It's vacation," Anakin said. "Let's do it."

"All right, I'll be back with two terrible decisions," Kitty said.

"That would be an excellent name for a drink," Anakin said, closing his eyes and enjoying the jacuzzi.
