Thursday November 22/12 update  # 293
The fellow at the Quito B+B was very kind and drove Mavis to the airport at 4am.  We were very thankful that he gave her that feeling of security.   I had been up since 1:20am working on my photos and blogs so I was able to say our goodbyes.  
We had a leisurely small breakfast then caught a cab to the airport ourselves at 10am.   Bella’s concern that I didn’t have my passport was for naught as I got along with no problem with my copy of my Cedula.  I didn’t expect that they would ask for a passport since it was only a domestic flight.
It was very cloudy and I was seated at the window right in the front row but my hopes of seeing the high volcanoes peeking through the clouds were dashed.  I was hoping to see Cotapaxi adjoining Quito or perhaps Chimborazo or Tungurahua to the south, but no such luck.
The flight was right on time and the flying time of 35 minutes is pretty easy to take in comparison to a 9-hour drive!   We were very happy to get home and see the Boys who had been looked after so well by Gertie in our absence.
Then there was just enough time to change clothes and bus over to Joe’s Secret Garden for a scrumptious Thanksgiving deep-fried turkey dinner with all the trimming followed by 3 desserts.   Life is so tough here!!
I really got busy tonight and my laptop did yeoman’s work getting all caught up on our Blogs.  A big feeling of relief on my part.
Now I need to find someone who can solve my computer problem with an overworking svchost in the processes.  I really don’t want to have to reformat everything.   Any ideas?
That was today’s excitement.  Hugs to all.    Enjoy the pics at souvenircuenca.blogspot.com
