quito rocks and shakes on..

WOW,What a odd few weeks here in Quito.. Quito was in the parth of a large earthquake that was centered in Columbia,however here in Quito the hotel i live in shook for 45 seconds..It was my 2nd earthquake and it never gets easy..Lucky for us it was just a little rumble.. Work conti nues on and on however I have finally begun to find things that i really enjoy.. I have traveled a bit over a long weekend..visiting such small towns as Ibarra,Otavalo and San Antonio..This city and country really have a lot to offer..

While in Quito i have found some musicians...Previously i was invited to see a percussion group call TOMBACH.. this is a series of guys who sing and play drums..Along with my camera i attended a concert of heavy metal..good old fashioned rock and roll music.. it was really great to hear live music again.. Thanks to Paul for the invite.. The band is called Anima Inside.. here are photos of my travels and the concert.. As always leave me some feedback..
