A beautiful day in Quito


Mary and Linda, who had returned to Quito yesterday, joined us for breakfast and our early morning meeting. We said “goodbye” to Mary and promised to email photos to her. At FUNDAC, the children were finishing breakfast when we arrived. After breakfast, they practiced for the goodbye celebration for tomorrow. Amy and Pat joined in. Larry continued working on the planters for the patio. Lunch was early because Maggie had to leave early. Every lunch has been delicious and today was no exception. We particularly enjoyed the traditional Ecuadorian rum ice cream. After lunch, Pat, Amy, and Callan continued helping in the children’s rooms and then held another English session for the tías. Larry finished the planters and attached them to the patio rail. It was a beautiful day with a clear blue sky and all the mountains could be seen.
