Heroes

Four of greatest men in the history of latin America is waiting for you when you sit down at the table to enjoy your gourmet pizza.

But what are their names and what have they done ​​to be honored with their portraits at this upscale eatery by theTena river bank? Well, indeed you should know.

Perhaps the flags shown under their noble faces will help you?

Rainbow Man

Every Sunday he visits the Carolina Park in Quito presenting his colors. The price of a color is 10 cents. For a dollar you can get the entire rainbow.

Then you can look for treasure at the end of the rainbow. But with no guarantees from the Rainbow Man. This is not his job.

The Tree God

From immemorial  times The Tree God has ruled Ecuador. He is not figuring on any official lists of statesmen and presidents, but that does not matter. He knows he is in charge. Not even President Correa will dare to challenge him.

However the rainforest department has several times frightened him with  closure.

Here he is rendered by a local artist in this year's carnival. Unlike some other fearful religions, the Tree God not bother showing his face .

Beware of the tourists

They have taken the Plaza Foch in their possession. With long confident steps they are parading like victoorious Germans one April day in Norway 1940.

Light fitted in short pants because they are close to the equator line. Undaunted by the fact that this is at 2800 meters altitude and the temperature gauge shows 12 degrees celsius; the uniform code is fortified.
