My slide show from a 3-week trip to Ecuador in July and August 2011 with my mother Ginger, my sister Molly and a family friend Mike: 2 days in Quito; 5 days in the the Amazon region of el Oriente at the Huaorani Ecolodge; 3 days on Isla Isabela in the Galapagos Islands; 7 nights on the luxury M/V Beluga touring the smaller outer islands; and finally 4 more nights in Quito. The photos are by Molly and me, save the one aerial shot of the Shiripuno river, which was shared with me by the folks at Detour.
