Market food and Quito walkabout
So first things first we headed to the central market so mom could have some market grub!!! I ordered to lunch plates, with chicken soup, rice, chicken, beans and a drink for three bucks!
And just as I hoped the chicken soup came with real good portion of chicken feet and innards!!! Yum Yum! I've gotten used to sucking the skin off the feet but mom couldn't handle it! Haha
After the market we started the uphill trek to the beautiful Cathedral of La Basilica, I've seen a lot of cathedrals in my travels but this was by far the most impressive! Despite not really acclimatizing at all to the 3500 m altitude mom did really well walking the streets! Later that night we went back to the same restaurant I went to the night before in La Ronda and got the same plate of food and mom found her new favorite potato dish! "llapingachos"! We found a little pub with some live music and then headed back to the hotel and made the decision to leave to the Amazon in the morning!
