North of Quito, Ecuador stands an impressive monument marking "The Middle of the World" with a yellow line painted down the pavement.
Well, the first line was calculated in the 1700's using the best technology available at the time. Present day GPS reveals that the original line was not placed quite correctly. So like many visitors to Ecuador, we had our photo taken in both places on our recent visit.
Another interesting fact: it is supposedly easier to balance an egg vertically on a nail at the equator. JR was the first person in our group to accomplish it.
