I'm too tired to


I'm too tired to write much in here. We left for Quito on Saturday about 7 AM. Got there just after noon, and managed to get some errands done. The boys enjoyed having lunch at McDonalds, as they always do when they are in Quito. Santa Claus 2 is in the theatres there, but is in spanish, so they didn't want to see it. They don't understand spanish that well to watch a movie and get it all. The boys wanted to go to the airport to pick up grandma and grandpa, but they couldn't stay awak until 11:30 PM. As it turned out, the plane didn't land as the weather was poor in Quito, and it diverted to Guayaquil. At 9300' and with high mountains around the airport, it's a difficult place to land. Mom and dad spent the night in Guayaquil and came to Quito in the morning, arriving in Quito at 11:30 AM. By the time we left Quito it was 1:45 PM, and we arrived back in Shell at 7:30 PM. It was late 'till I went to bed, about midnight. I'm supposed to ride with John this afternoon, but I'm too tired.
