Title

I'm told there are now shopping malls in Quito and Guayaquil.
I wouldn't know. I avoid them here, I'll avoid them there just as quickly.

The market, though... that's another story.

Crowded, colorful, exotic, dusty, in-your-face REAL.
All those things that the Great American Shopping Mall Experience ISN'T.

I love `em.
(Well, except for the pickpockets, but that's another story...)
