El Malecón de Guayaquil


My first weekend-after-work the week before last and I started getting to know my new city with a long and hot Sunday walk along the main pier (malecón) of Guayaquil.  You get a good view of the estuary from this lighthouse at the top of Las Peñas - a neighbourhood of colourful houses jumbled up the sides of a hill that had me thinking of the views in Rio de Janeiro of the favelas.  Here I felt proper looked out for as first one then another chatty security police stopped me to talk.
