La Mitad del Mundo






This morning we visited the middle of the earth. It was one of the most scientifically interesting museums I have ever visited. Teresa and I stood in both the nornthern and southern hemispheres at the same time. We watched numerous demonstrations of how the indigenous people kept track of season, told time, and discovered 0 centrifugal force. We also learned more about the Quichua way life and were introduced to the Guarani people who inhabited Ecuadar before the invasion of the Spaniards.
