After barely any sleep due to fears of our cabin burning down or our bodies burning up, apparently suffering from our hiking exploits, up in time for the 5am bus. Hung around on the road in the dark for about 40mins, with a chap on horseback telling us we had missed it, before it hooted it's way around the corner. Rob, in rather a bad way, slept all the way to Latacugna, possibly partly on the shoulder of the mountain dweller next to him. Another bus to Quito, and a taxi to our hostel, there and ready for bed at about 10.30am. On arising from our slumber, wandered in to Quito New Town for a bite to eat. Discovering this was all a bit much, retired back to bed for slumbering and Chile reading.
