Back to the Land of the North

I'm on the first leg of my flight back to the land of the north. I'm sitting in the tiny Quito airport (you don't have to worry about which gate your flight leaves from because there's only one) waiting on a flight that heads to Miami at 09:45 and lands after four hours. There isn't much of interest to speak of at this point, except for the convenience of this little bity airport.  As I explained in my first ever Ecuador blog, Quito's airport is very dangerous due to the fact that it's smack dab in the middle of the city. On the other hand, I love it because of the facts that we got here in 15 minutes and it's so small that it's easy. If you've ever been in one of these huge international airports (my friend Mark calls Chicago's O' Hare, "O' Hell") then you know what I mean when I say that they're ridiculous. Those airports, like the Miami one that I'm flying to, are like small cities, they have their own zip codes and they're impossible to navigate. Let me tell you, I'm looking forward to getting lost in MIA today, not! Give me my tiny UIO any day.
