The beach & more Quito

Me and Karen went to Atacames, a town at the beach, to get a tan before we went back to Holland. =) It was so relaxed!!! Tanning during the day, having a cocktail in the night... The first night was so funny! We chose one cocktailbar out of the 30 bars or something like that and we ordered a drink.... And then I saw a guy I met in Quito (6 hour-drive!)!!! I scared the hell out of him! LOL!!! Turned out that he owns that cocktailbar! What a coincidence!!!! (he didn't want to be on the pic.... too bad...)
 
The other pics were taken at 'our' bar in Quito called Blooms. We've spent a lot of time over there.... =)

And we did some cultural things too ofcourse: for example, our visit to the Guayasamin Foundation/museum. Oswaldo Guayasamin was a famous Ecuadorian artist. I especially like his paintings (the 'manos' collection).
