Galapagos Islands travel: Quito's Jesuit Church. Galapagos Islands travel: Quito's Jesuit Church.
Before we left for the Galapagos Islands, our tour took us to Quito's Jesuit Church. Wow, that was a LOT of gold. Oops, the video was on for a few seconds inside the church. Our Mountain Travel Sobek guide Santiago said the "no photography" rule has more to do with "no *flash* photography"; no flash was used in the accidental acquisition of this footage. And yes, if it looks like gold, it is 24k gold. Everywhere. (:40)

A picture is worth a thousand words, and a video is worth a thousand pictures. It's still impossible to describe that statue or the views from atop it's hill. Most impressive. Our Mountain Travel Sobek tour of Quito, Ecuador ended with a real "high". Next: flying to the Galapagos Islands. (1:30)
