On our way between Quito and Hacienda Pinsaqui we made a quick stop at Mitad del Mundo. I mean, you have to, right? Would be foolish to be in the vicinity and miss out on this iconic souvenir and photo opportunity. So we shelled out our $2 entrance fees and strolled in.
What made our visit interesting was the wild weather. It was windy and foggy, with some brief bursts of mist, too.
Had a somewhat otherworldly feel.
We snapped a few obligatory shots ...
... assumed a few obligatory poses ...
... and snagged a couple obligatory t-shirts (though, sadly, they don't really sell the short, extra wide sizes that I can readily get here in the U.S.)
... and we listened to a few minutes of Hermanos Nunez before departing.
All in all, a nice visit. Maybe took 45 minutes to an hour total. Definitely glad we made the stop.
