Patty, I'm Aunty. Ask Ante if you're confused - I sure was at first, but he's been calling me Aunty for about a year now.

Lonie - that photo is Cotopaxi as seen from Quito; I'm in Ambato right now. However, I did live there for about a year (during course of which, I took the photo from the roof of my apartment.)

Anyone confused about the altitudes remark - Quito is at 2853 m in the central square. I was at 3022 m when I took the photo. Cotopaxi tops out at 5,897 m and is about 100 km away from where I took that pic. And in Ambato, my house is at 3135 m.

And to top it all off, Cayambe, another volcano that can be seen from Quito. (Bear with me, I'm looking for my Tungurahua pictures!)
