Eating duck, salmon and ham, but mainly words

Ok,so this is where I guess I have to take it all back - seems it's the hotel's dodgy WiFi that's at fault. I'm in the foyer now and it's working fine. Shame we leave tomorrow.

Tonight was a special treat: we had dinner (catered by the Hilton) in the private home of a woman who's VP of the touring company we're working with, a charming lady even if she is unfairly slim and glamorous for a mother of 3 boys. It was a typical Quito house: pretty much a blank wall to the city street, but inside spacious and modern, with a couple of courtyards open to the sky. Lovely. It was a jolly evening and now we've walked back to the hotel to pack for tomorrow's trip into the country.

Buenas noches!
