Relaxation

March 20 – Word of the Day: Perezoso (Lazy)

Being that this 12th day of our trip, we were getting tired of the constant movement so we decided we´d take it easy.  We slept in and enjoyed a leisurely breakfast at the Hotel Oro Verde before heading out to explore the city of Guayaquil.

Guayquil was much hotter than Quito thankfully which meant an opportunity to enjoy the outdoor pool later.  We walked through the city all the way down to the riverfront.  There they have some monuments and statues and some fun photo ops. 🙂

J and I decided it would be fun to goof around taking pictures in random locations along the riverfront.  The city had a lot of character, but the riverfront wasn´t as pretty as I thought it would be… the river actually looked pretty dirty and I felt a little like I was in St. Louis except with more spanish speaking people.

After exploring the city we were dying of heat so we decided to head back to the hotel to enjy the pool at grab lunch at one of the delis.  It got cloudy and windy in the afternoon so we took advantage of the weather situation to be lazy and catch up on some of our shows.  Probably a good thing that we took it easy because tomorrow we have a very early flight to head to Peru!
