GOING TO THE BEACH


My dad rented a spacious car which we drove to the beach in. One of the most beautiful things about Ecuador is that they basically have all different climates. Quito, the capital, is where we spent most time. That is the highest capital in the world (above sea level), and as such it isn’t too warm there since it’s so high up. But, when you head to the beach you have to go through the mountains which means going through the rain forest. And that my friends is warm. Boy oh boy is it warm and humid. Once you reach the beach it’s still pretty humid, but at least you can get a nice breeze from the ocean. The drive to the beach is beautiful, and long. Pretty darn long.
