I could have said I am really enjoying the extra time … Continue reading God Is Working

November 2017 Trip – Day Eight
We went on an adventure today to explore Cotopaxi. Ashley, Meredith and Stephanie took us on a beautiful drive through Quito and up to the mountain/volcano to take in the views. It was breathtaking, in more ways than one at over 15,000 feet in elevation where we could drive to. We had an amazing time … Continue reading November 2017 Trip – Day Eight

Day four in Cuenca was another day of work. Thom and I headed to the station after breakfast and got right down to business.

November 2017 Trip – Day Three
We had another amazing day in Cuenca! We started the morning off with breakfast which included eating the mango Emily bought at the marcedo on Wednesday. It was so good we made a point to go back and get more of them. After breakfast we took a tour on a double decker bus through the … Continue reading November 2017 Trip – Day Three
