Ecuador and Costa Rica 2008

We all went to Ecuador, Caleb to spend the summer with a family in Quito, and the rest of us to spend three weeks. Our first two weeks we spent in Mindo, a little mountain resort town, where we took Spanish lessons and did some volunteer work. We spent the third week in the Amazon ("El Oriente" in Ecuador), and almost every weekend in Quito with Caleb and his family and church. On the way home, we spent a week in Costa Rica, visiting Tortuguero and a family we met four years ago.
