A New Adventure... Shell, Ecuador

Abby's Ecuadorian Adventure is under way!  We are getting settled into our friend's home. Camp starts tomorrow.

The OMS Guest house in Quito where we spent our first night.

If you look closely you can see the snow covered mountain in the background behind the clouds. It is a volcano named Cotopaxi that just erupted last week.  There is still much smoke and ash in the air and on the plants and the ground in the surrounding area.  It is south of Quito and we drove by it on the way to Shell.

Quito is surrounded by mountains, many of them volcanos.  Here is a view as we are nearing Shell.  We had to stop because there had been a landslide and they were cleaning up the road.  I  got out and took a few photos. :)
