Hi. short update. This one is mostly for meself since I updated yesterday or the day before.
Okay, so we ate some sugar cane in Banos. Apparently, that was a bad idea because Michelle and I both ended up with terrible stomach aches. I actually saw a blinding light at one point as I tossed and turned on the bed we share. But! Our host mom, the dentista, came through for us...after a long night of vomiting and the continuous emissions of other bodily fluids, she injected into my buttocks THE BIGGEST NEEDLE that I have ever been in contact with. It hurt something fierce and i still have a slight bruise. Michelle recieved her special shot this afternoon. On account of our sickness, we have been delayed to the point where we will be canceling our trip to the coast. We will stay in Otavalo and do day trips including, but not limited to, climbing Ibarra and Fuya Fuya mountains...horseback ride to the waterfalls...check out some crater lakes...dancing at the folk PENA....Quito city tour and the MITAD del MUNDO...center of the world. We are already feeling much better so everything is looking good.
tomorrow we are throwing a little party for our little kiddies. CAKE! And a PINATA! one week...america...i hope obama is winning...
