After a long day

We had an incredible day learning about local culture, history, other interesting facts, and then touring the city of Quito. Lunch was soooo good. We ate at Fruteria, and had delicious panatas and other great local dishes. The fresh juice from local fruits is awesome. They tend to drink it thicker like a smoothy. After lunch, we climbed all through the Basilica (Catholic Cathedral), including trips to the tops of two of the spires. Amazing! We then walked through the city touring significant sites and churches. The altitude is challenging, but we are hangin in there. We slept well last night, and I suspect we'll sleep awesome tonight and everynight. I'm still looking for good wifi access so hopefully I'll be able to put up some great pics soon. Tomorrow is our first day of work and ministry. Please continue to pray for us and the community of Carmen Bajo. Hasta luego!
