Ecuador. There are some amazing pics on that site. But I wouldn't want to ride. Talk about sore!

Ecuador also has the Galapagos. That would be an amazing trip, wouldn't it?

Have some yerba mate and listen to the triple-meter cowboy music!

Yes, I would go there.

I hear the mate tea helps with the altitude. :)

take the train

alpaca your bags

you calling me a bag?

Beautiful pics Cloud.

well, apparently not a wise vacation choice:

Americans brutally attacked in Ecuador

My friend just went to Ecuador in August with his wife and mother-in-law for a wedding...his wife's family is originally from there. He had a great time and said it was a beautiful place.
