Chao Quito

Our flight to Miami was scheduled at 6:00 PM which meant we had some time to say good bye and do one last thing. Before leaving we both wanted to eat a Hamburguesa El Corral. This is a Colombian chain restaurant that makes the best hamburgers that I've ever had. I never eat hamburgers unless they are from this place. We had a kid's size burger as our early lunch. Andre drove me to El Jardin (shopping center) and I was surprised to see several stores of my favorite Colombian clothing brands. After our trip to Cali for our wedding I was disappointed that I couldn't buy anything because we were too busy. I am a quick shopper and I was able to buy a few things in less than one hour. 

We got ready for our second lunch at Vaco y Vaca before going to the airport. I had a steak with rice and salad. Steak is one of the things that I can't eat often because I don't like it too much. I also had my last cup of Juan Valdez coffee. 


It was very sad to say goodbye to Andre's family. We spent a week with them and we were not ready to  leave. I hate goodbyes and the airport makes it worse since there are some many people around you doing the same. I always cry and seeing them cry didn't help. I know that we will be back in Quito soon and I am happy to do so. Quito is a beautiful City with many things to see and do. The New York Times published this 36 hous in Quito article which I found completely true. We will try to always fly with LAN from now on. Our experience with them was wonderful and the personal screens made the flight short. We decided to spend the night in Miami since our flight arrived at almost midnight. The next morning we drove to Tampa and got psychologically ready to get back to work the following day.
