On entering Ecuador I came face to face with the rising Andes. I put them on. They fit nicely like a new pair of boxers. No constriction and they looked pretty fancy.
I had my cheapest meal yet in Quito the first night. Burger, fries, soup and a drink for $1. Im not blaming the delicious $1 meal but I think it might have been created by the devil or Steve Darling from GlobalTV.
After defeating the $1 meal I had a peaceful slumber. In the morning I walked upstairs to the patio for breafast and I was graced with the return of my old friend. The last time I had seen him was half way up Oreo Mountain in Salento. It was Jesus!
Jesus and I decided to tour the city. Our first stop was a museum exhibit dedicated to the revolution. It illustrated how the devious Spaniards had exploited the people here and how the people eventually struck back. I was sure to remind Jesus that he was a Spaniard. I was quite impressed with the state of the art technology used in the museum. I´m not sure who produced the films in the museum but they had a strange fetish for talking paintings. They took paintings of historical figures and used their superior technology to make their lips move. Outstanding! The whole exhibit was in Spanish so I was lucky to have Jesus translate it all for me.
Afterwards, Jesus wanted to take me to all the churches in the city. I think he wanted to save my soul. I only went in one of the churches because I heard that you get to climb some precarious ladder to the top. Jesus vouched to hang around at the bottom as he didn´t feel like walking anymore. I climbed my way up the shaky stairs and exposed ladder to the top of the tower. I don´t know why they made it so difficult to get to the top. I feel sorry for who has to climb up to ring the bell everyday.

The next day I was supposed to meet Jesus for breakfast at my hostal but he wasn´t there. That Jesus. So mysterious. I would soon regret the $1 meal but thats for another blog entry! As you have probably noticed, my camera is broken and so I won´t be uploading pictures for a while. For now you have to make due with random pictures.
¨Goodnight everybody.¨
hahaha. they get better and better. good read. is jesus fat? i imagine a fat Spaniard.
ReplyDeleteI thought that guy who looks like Danny DeVito was the mysterious Jesus who you have been walking and talking with!!! Moses had to go to the top of the mountain to get the ten commandments and that is why you had to climb the stairway to heaven alone, after Jesus left you, in order to experience spiritual freedom. Your explosive diarrhea was symbolic of being born again. Ezekiel also saw 'a wheel within a wheel a-turnin way in the middle of the air'. That explains the mysterious alien carvings you witnessed earlier. Your camera broke - the universe does not like to disclose it's secrets easily. It all makes sense now! You are on a great adventure - beware and be aware!!! Pah
