Morning Bus Between Mindo and Quito
I hope that many of you will join the new challenge of “Escape,” which will be open for entries through Tuesday of next week. I am presently traveling with friends in Ecuador’s Andes mountains, and will be sharing images of my escape soon!
See you at Let’s Be Wild! Lisa/Z

Fantastic photo..congrats !!

Well deserved, Lisa. This coastal scene is full of energy. Enjoy your great Escape and I look forward to your photos.
thanks! we are having an amazing ‘escape’ – so much happening that there’s no time for managing photos or writing a post (or reading others’)
hope to catch up soon.

Congrats to you Z, and thank you for mentioning me too! Hugs Chica! Cannot wait to see your escape!
You would be having an amazing time here at the middle of the world at the oldest hacienda in the country! First thing this morning there was a ‘life bird’ pecking at the windows and asking why in the world weren’t we outside yet!! The birds were medium sized bright yellow with black wings and yellow spots on the wings. Giant emerald hummingbirds were feeding on scarlett flowers in the same area. Yes, I will need to make ten escape posts, and am not sure when I will have the time to manage the photos and design the post!
Soon I hope!

How wonderful! Congratulations to you for landing in the Winners’ Circle! I’m not much surprised by your win. Your photograph is simply stunning. I’m sure many people from Cuba to Newfoundland are looking at such images with a certain trepidation just now, as that’s a nasty storm heading for the east coast. Even so, the sheer magnificence of the ocean’s power can’t be denied.
I’m traveling a bit myself – I’m up in Kansas City, completely enjoying my taste of fall. Cool temperatures, a freeze warning, a clear sky and a waxing moon – so different from your world, but equally gorgeous!
hey! it’s great to know that you’re travelling! we’ve been offline for 36+ hours, so I have yet to look at the headlines or weather. yes, it looks like there’s going to be a horrid storm.
glad that you’re enjoying a change of scenery! we had a fantabulous drive today, and now i have about 4G of photos to wade through before deciding what to share and where to start!
thanks for staying in touch via comments!

Kudos! I’m so happy for you! 😉
