Yesterday was the much anticipated Pichincha climb. It went really well and it was a lot of fun. Ryan and I both felt like it was enjoyable and definitely not the hardest thing we'd ever done. So we're feeling confident that we'll have the energy and stamina for the next couple of weeks of mountain climbing.
What do you eat when you climb a mountain? Well let me tell you what we ate...
Breakfast - coffee (for me) and yogurt with granola and a 1/2 of a banana
On the trail - lots and lots of water (so much so that I had to pee twice while hiking!), a banana, abas (these nut/bean things), and bread (mine had peanut butter and jelly and Ryan's had butter). Plus we shared some chifles with our hiking partners.
Snack after the hike - cookies! Not even whole cookies, just the crumbs of the ones that fell apart!
Dinner - Pizza! We were all cozy watching LOST and didn't want to bother cooking so we ordered in! We haven't done that in ages! We got two pizzas: tomato, cheese, and roasted red peppers AND tomato, cheese, and tuna. The place we order from makes them more like flat breads and more pizzas. Hence the need for two! But they were delicious and much better than our other alternative, soup.
MULUB,
Taylor
