Tomorrow we’ll leave Quito continuing to follow the Pan-American Highway towards Peru. Herbie and we really enjoyed staying in Ecuador’s capital for a little while.
The Love Bug cannot wait to drive further on up the road heading South.
We already got a ton of invitations by VW Bug fans all across South America.
Meanwhile we took a brake from the “Panamericana”, having coca tea among others.
We loved strolling around Quito’s downtown observing the little things in daily life.
Especially the churches are definitely worth visiting. They are all different but beautiful.
The streets are comparatively clean and the city seems to be pretty safe too.
Number 53 is still waiting for departure. Tomorrow we’ll finally hit the road again.
Our next destination is the Cotopaxi National Park, a volcano south of Quito.
Hi, Great to see your incredible journey still going to plan.
Are you still on the original 1200cc engine? Best Regards Mick.
Hey Mick,
Great to hear from you!
Of course we’re still running on the very same engine with just 1,200 cc.
Air-cooled regards from Ecuador,
Herbie, Domi & Zainab
