fiesta etc.

 these are the pictures from my small pink camera that i always have with me. for example to go partying, i don't normally take my huge canon :-) and because this camera has a very strange memory card, i had to look for an internet cafe for so long, to be able to put the photos on my usb. so that's why here are pictures from a period of almost 2 months.
 first night out in quito, at a club called bungalow. next to me the house owner of where i lived, some friends of him, natalia (she lived with me in the house) and on the right, giga.
ladies night at arctic bar, secret tip of our german friend tobi (left). me, markus, giga and his host sister for a week, isabelle.
well, that's ladies night in quito. they play twlilight in the club.
 jessy and markus, james bond-style. on the right, i'm shooting them with the billiard cue.
that was on st. patrick's day in the irish pub "finn mccools"
most of the people were crazy, drunk, irish guys like that one :-)
...or my friends wearing strange stuff :-)
(including green beard. i only realized that when we came out of the pub, as inside it was dark. i was quite surprised!)
when jessy lost us, she found that girl that also had lost her friends.
different day, same place. one afternoon, while watching a football match switzerland-germany. unfortunately, markus won 7-0.
that's why i needed a tequila :-)
swiss girl with 2 german boys. markus understood my swissgerman, tobi didn't. so we spoke spanish as i wasn't in the mood to talk highgerman.

rooftop-party with jessy and markus (taking the picture)
i was invited to the concert of manu chao and calle 13!! was amazing!
here, it's the most normal thing to eat lollipops when you're going out. it's almost like smoing a cigarette. during the concert, the indigenous women with the boxes around their necks were selling them.
CALLE 13 <3
the concert was in the olimpic stadium "atahualpa", just next to my house. as it was outside and raining all the time, we got quite wet. but it was cool anyways!
my first weekend back in quito, i missed partying so much as there are only trees and alpacas in sierra flor.
this night, we went to bungalow again. actually, i didnt' want to, but it was a good idea :-)
when i came back from toilet, these girls were there. nobody knew who they were, but apparently, they were fun :-)

next day, dinner at coffee tree with estrella. we had spaghetti and with that, you get a glass of wine. but as it was as cold as always, she ordered a coffee and was quite ashamed of that :-)
 next day, lunchtime. coffee tree again (as you can imagine, it's the place we always meet. it's a restaurant on plaza foch, the center of the party area.) i ordered an ice tea, and that's what came. it was good though.
giga explaining me something about a guy he saw in a club. it ought to be tobi, my german friend. and he was with a strange guy that was doing "this" with his glasses all the time. but in fact, tobi was already in columbia since 2 weeks, so giga was talking to a stranger :-)
 that weekend, jessy and giga told me that they would go fishing. it was already the second attempt. so they drove all the way there, and the last 10 minutes they couldn't go further as some rocks fell down the mountain. they were really depressed because they didn't have the fishing experience. so we decided to "go fishing" in quito, with all the water that comes down it should be easy.
same picture, camera turned.
other quito experience: when i met the girls, they came with this masks from a birthday party at their house.
unbelievable: in no-bar, there is a poster about fishing! destiny.
that night, we went to 7 different places. when we came out of finn mccools, jessy saw this pretty flower, so we decided to take a picture. i think it's actually pretty cool!
next stop: strawberry fields! i always wanted to go to this bar, because it's full of beatles stuff, and all the drinks are called like songs of them. we never went, as it was always empty. but this night, quito was just unusable. either, the barkeeper (about 45 years old) was dancing as if he was running, or the music was just s***. so we thought: here, at least the decoration is cool.
weekend in baños
guillo, paco and mary
the boys
as julian wasn't hungry anymore, he made a gourmet plate out of the rest of the risotto. then he ate it. he outsmarted himself, i felt like with my babies at work :-)
one day, coming home from latacunga, we saw the volcano (which actually is 2 volcanoes, as the crater is split) called "los ilinizas".
