Well, despite the fact that the plugs have changed and I can no longer charge my camera or ipod, Ecuador has redeemed itself in my eyes. Yes, it may have taken me 5 months, but finally I have successfully located a Latin American Pub (well, Pub-like thingee) that offers that guilty pleasure... Trivia.
Mmmm - awww I still have that warm fuzzy feeling that comes from the obnoxious display of useless knowledge. Truly it is the Sydney´s metrosexual´s (or whatever the &%·$"! they are now calling well dressed, intelligent males who have poor hand eye co-ordination...) equivalent of beating his chest, killing a large smelly animal or urinating in a public place. Truly, Quito is now aware that I have ARRIVED!
Oh, by the way-
1. Which is the only South American country to have ever had an emperor?
2. What was the currency of Ecuador prior to dollarisation?
3. From which country does the sport of Lacrosse originate?
Ahh, I am still buzzing
Rock and Roll.

1. Brazil. (Emperors Pedro I & II, I think in the 19th century.)
2. The Sucre. (Mmm, sugar...)
3. Canada, though the USA could equally lay claim to it. They just don't care as much.
DID I WIN? DID I WIN?
(And for the record, I'm not a metrosexual. Poorly dressed males of average intelligence and fair hand-eye co-ordination can enjoy trivia too...)
