I have been in Santa Ana Cotopaxi Hotel and it is an amazing place, the Hacienda is beautiful and tha tours are great too. The pictures of the horseback riding are great!

Those images from the glacier are particularly striking, although each photo in your travel journal really conveys the atmosphere of Ecuador… Thanks for sharing them with us :)

My dad got handed a leopard print pair, and I died a little. And I think Ecuador is probably a good introduction to South America – it’s a quick flight, they use USD, and you can see a ton of different landscapes in a small geographical area.

I’ve never been to South America but it’s definitely on my list. Sounds like a lot of physical activity crammed into a short space of time – no wonder you were knackered! (PS: love those chaps!)

I’ve never felt so short of breath as I did climbing in Ecuador, but the landscapes everywhere I’ve been in the Andes are so worth it!

It brings back memories of a trip in 1989 and I so well remember Cotopaxi from a great distance — it seemed to hover in the distance for ever and ever. The mountains are breathtaking and the people colorful. Thanks for your descriptive remembrances — I so enjoy them!

These are some of my favorite places here. I have yet to hike down to the crater at Quilatoa and will take your advice to heart… we’re planning a backtrip in the future so it will be interesting. But if you were suffering from the altitude, it can make it so much worse. I had that hiking the Inca Trail on our longest day. It’s horrific. I love the views of the mountains at Cotopaxi. Last time we went, the trail to the shelter was fogged in unbelievably and since we live here, we decided to try on a different day. Your photos make me want to return as soon as possible!

Thanks for sharing your trip, it brought back many lovely memories for me. I had forgotten that we visited Quilotoa (it was 7 years ago) – so beautiful.

Don’t beat yourself up about the altitude. It is literally killer for some & affects everyone differently & randomly. I have know athletes suffer worse than obese couch potatoes.
