When I see a mountain sneak peaking out from the clouds I absolutely squeal, I'm so excited. I don't know if any of you do or not, but if you do, you may enjoy sharing the view out my window. 

Our flights were from Cusco to Lima, then another to Guayaquil and the last one to Quito. The one from Guayaquil to Quito flew over the spine of the Andes mountains we'd not been able to see for 2 1/2 months.

That's right. We've been here almost 3 months and have never gotten to see these--not even any part of them--so I was thrilled beyond giggles when they started coming into view.

I couldn't stop taking pictures!

But anyway, we're back in Quito now and have found a good dentist we're happy with. We'll be going to his office every day for 2 weeks to get everything done. It's about a third to a fourth what it would cost at home, or in other words: I simply would not ever do it. Bob and I are both having work done.

We should be stunning when it's all finished.
