Photos of Ecuador

Sofia and I are in week 2 of our long stay in Ecuador and we are loving every minute. Juan will arrive this Saturday...we have really missed our guy! We are planning a trip to the rain forest the Sunday after he arrives so I´m excited to share some photos of that adventure but until then here are a few that I have taken the past few days...Enjoy.








These are just some photos I took of the city. Juan´s parents building is very close to where these photos were taken.

Sofia´s cousins- Gaby, Sofia, Nico, Esteban Andres and David

This photo is a little dark but I wanted to show you our wild Sofia walking...I mean running. I can´t keep up with her...maybe it´s the altitude :)

I love this photo. Sofia has her cousin Nico´s pajamas on and her Ita Ena put a scrunchy in her hair...too cute.

Day 5 in Ecuador

Sofia and I left for Ecuador on Monday for a month long stay. It has been so nice and Sofia is getting so much attention and I´m getting to sleep in :) We have been eating a tone and enjoying all of it. The food here is all natural...no preservatives so all we do is eat! Oh...and Sofia is walking a lot. After seeing her cousins run all over she decided that she didn´t want to be left out. I love seeing her with her family here...everyone just loves her and she is loving them. I will post some pictures soon so that you can see this beautiful country.

Here are some neat facts about Quito, Ecuador:
-Ecuador is split by the equator; the line passes just to the north of the capital city of Quito.
-The elevation of the city is 2,850 m (about 9,350 ft), making Quito the second-highest administrative capital city in the world.
-Ecuador has numerous volcanos; one of them, if mesaured from the center of the earth, would be even higher than Mt. Everest! (On a clear day, I can actually see some volcanoes from Juan´s parents home)
-Quito, known as “the eternal spring, is said to have the best weather in the world.
