Guinea pig for lunch...
Yes we did have guinea pig for lunch! Fried in the traditional way. About a thrid of the students tried it.
Not sure if you can catch the gasoline sign - gas is $1.40/gal here for regular $1.99 for premium. It's a good thing, since the Andes are one long drive up followed by another long descent. We saw 4 of the active volcanoes.
In the morning we visited a traditional Ecuadorian Rose farm and watch as they packaged beautiful long stem roses for deliver to Russia, Germany and the US.
After a wonderful dinner, we went to the town''s music festival - then home to crash and re-pack for our flight to Galapagos.

Wow! It sure does look like you are all having an incredible time. Enjoy the Galapagos, and tell Will to quit making such goofy faces in all the pics (good luck-I've been telling him that for 13 years). We head to Mexico ourselves. Have fun!! The Courtneys
