Stopover

Guayaquil, Ecuador

Today's adventure consisted of flying from Santiago to Guayaquil, this time via Lima in Peru. Much quicker than our route through Bogota when we went the other way.

Over the last few days we said goodbye to the city of Santiago, which we have actually grown quite fond of. Maybe we just got used to it. We tried to visit the Museo Moda but found it was closed until May, spending the bulk of the day at a nearby very upscale mall - took in an afternoon movie while we were there. We explored some more of the city via the subway, visiting an artisans market at the end of the line.

Today we arrived In Guayaquil in the early afternoon and decided we would stay overnight and take a bus to Bahia de Caraquez tomorrow morning. That way we will arrive during the daylight hours - no need to try and wake up the night watchman to beg a ride to our boat.
