In higher spirits

Ecuador has made me challenge my fear of heights!
I have been ''in higher spirits'' on many occasions...
And I am not always keen about it.
This was me before I went on the Teleferico (cable car) in Quito.


Buuuut...
It ended up being a lot of fun


and the views were amazing!


On July's very first day
I took the biggest challenge!
We visited the Basilica and went up and up...


and up..


And then we saw this:


And this...

Detail from big stained glass window.

And I climbed up this...

Window in clocktower.

We walked through this...


The heights were awesome and horrible...
but very much awesome!

  1. I don't consider myself particularly afraid of heights, and you did way better in the Basilica than I did. That photo of you climbing up on the window doesn't really show how insane it was...the towers are 115 meters high, so you were about 100 meters above the ground. Je bent gek!
