If at first you don't succeed, try try again!

Yesterday Emily and I ventured to Papallacta with a friend of Lucita's who doesn't speak any English. The car ride was going great until our driver pointed to the side of the rocky steep side wall and said "accident". Sure enough moments later we were stopped. A semi carrying a lot of cargo had wrecked and was blocking the road. We sat for a while and eventually decided to turn back because it was going to be a long time. So today we are trying again! I am absolutely in love with Ecuador and Ecuadorian culture and people! The family unit has such a strong bond and I am so thankful for our host mom Lucita and her Friends and family who have been so kind and welcoming. A kiss on the cheek hello and goodbye is custom and I find it so friendly and warm! Friends in the states lookout, I think I'm going to bring this custom home ;)!
