Only two weeks left for our group here in Ecuador. I know that I will miss this place a lot and am kind of sad to leave but it will be nice to get back to the states and have those long summer nights to enjoy. Just had a 4th of July celebration, sin fuegos artificiales, with our entire group and about 20-30 more of our new Ecuadorian amigos. Quite the night with lots of beer, baked beans, hamburgers, hot dogs, potato salad, pineapple salsa, guacamole and more. We have recently planned a trip to the coast for an extended weekend on the 17-19 of May so I will be lounging around Mantenita and Isla de la Plata (poor mans Galapagos) for a few days. Very excited about the trip and seeing blue-footed boobies, tons of other birds, attempting to get a tan, and relaxing. I have figured out that I will be working for 20 days straight to finish out my campaign here so a break will be well deserved and necessary. Pictures attached are of a llama, the ruins at Ingapirca, and a random flower found in the paramo last week. Hope everyone had a good holiday and look forward to seeing people soon.
Cool stuff dude, did you try the cuy like you said you might? It has gotta be good...in a weird hamster sort of way.
