Executive!

So I'm at the bus station and had to choose between two bus companies going to Quito. Although one company said it was 'ejecutivo servicio', I went with the other company because it left first. And then the bus shows up and it's 'super ejecutivo'.  Winning!   (And this post is in sarcasm because rarely are the buses that much nicer in South America, and it's all just words and marketing.   Some of the nicest have been the cheap regular buses, and the fanciest sounding are normally lacking,  sometimes without working seats or air, and with toilets that drop directly on to the ground.)

Post script :  the toilet was locked for the journey, the AC was cranked on freezing all night and it was pretty bumpy. So yeah,  it was just a regular bus journey on this trip.
