This is Quito, the Ecuadorian capital.


The monument which marks the equadortial line which runs through Ecuador.
This is the "Center of the World" monument.
Some folks confuse the Equador with the south pole! Here we are only sidewise, not up-side-down.
Here I did my toilet bowl experiment. The water does spin clockwise when south of the equador! Three meters north of the equador it spins the opposite direction! Imagen, only six feet of difference makes the difference of the rotation! When the bowl is exactly over the equador, the water does not spin- only moves directly toward the drain hole.







This is Cumanda, who is making the trip to Equador worthwilde!


Los HELADOS de la MITAD del MUNDO reads "The ice cream shop of the middle of the world."
