Photos from Chimborazo.

Here we are with our Agriculture Program director. The next photos in order are: vicuna (ecuatorian deer that live in the highland paramo), an alpaca or is it a llama?, two photos from a cacao processing plant.



They gave us a free sample of chocolate (pasta de cacao) and we used it to make no-bake chocolate cookies for our host family in Tabacundo. Yumm
We leave for Quito to swear in on the 16th. Then we will be in Quito for one more week of Kichwa language training. On the 24th we leave to live in San Bernardo, which will be our site' south of Riobamba for the next 2 years.
Thanks for your comments. We look forward to more. Overall we are very happy but at times feel lonely for all of you.
