I think the highlight of Guayaquil was the 'iguana park' (see first photo); a park full of iguanas (I wonder if that is where it got its nickname? Just a thought). They were fed by the local government and were absolutely everywhere. However, it was not all watching wildlife. I got plenty of time to just sit and think and work on my all over tan (see second photo), which I think you will agree is coming along quite nicely. When I left Guayaquil I had a narrow escape as the bus that left before us was called the Titanic (see third photo). It obviously took a different route to us as we did not pass its wreckage impacted into an iceberg.
[Creo que lo más destacado de Guayaquil fue la "iguana park" (ver primera foto), un parque lleno de iguanas (me pregunto si es allí donde consiguió su apodo? Sólo un pensamiento.). Fueron alimentados por el gobierno local y estaban por todas partes. Sin embargo, no todo fue observar la vida silvestre. Tengo un montón de tiempo para sentarse y pensar y trabajar en mi todo bronceado (ver segunda foto), que creo que usted estará de acuerdo que viene a lo largo de bastante bien. Cuando salí de Guayaquil tenía un escape estrecho ya que el autobús que nos dejó antes se llamaba el Titanic (ver tercera foto). Obviamente, tomó una ruta diferente para nosotros, ya que no pasaron sus restos impactó contra un iceberg.]
