In the Early Sixties

I visited Ecuador I the early 60s.
I remember:
eating good food with construction workers near Esmeraldas,
Colorados wearing red clay,
center of Quito looking like a pleasant city in medieval Europe,
Quito having the best public baths I had visited until that time. plenty of hot water too,
multi-storied buildings built on a framework of bamboo in Guayaquil,
good people everywhere.
