Ecuador (pt I)

The Basílica del Voto Nacional lies in the historical district of Quito. It's a gem, I tell you: gorgeous cathedral and gorgeous views with a true Quasimodo experience. We climbed the towers of the cathedral!! It felt unsafe, but definitely worth it.

We walked across planks that were laid
across the point of the arch.

Climbing, climbing, climbing
