Today began with much brighter weather. The sun was out, the sky was blue and my head finally didn't hurt any (remember - altitude). We started the day by taking a trip to visit Jefferson, a young man from the Refugio who is struggling mightily with health ailments. On the way to see Jefferson, we passed some interesting sights (ask me about the burros when I get home). The air here is really pretty bad. Quito sits in a bowl surrounded by the Andes mountains (some snow-topped and one active volcano) so all those bus fumes just hang around. Too, the roads are quite an adventure.
