Ruins

Hello! Hope everyone is well. Thanks for the birthday wishes. I had a nice birthday. My friends surprised me with a cake and trick candles and everything. It was really sweet!! I played cards with my friends at night, and that was fun too.

I know I haven't updated in a while, but here goes. On Saturday we went to see some ruins. The place is called Rumicucho. The adventure was probably more of a story than the ruins themselves, but it was pretty fun. Here is a pic of the ruins. It's the snakey wall thing on the mountain.











Here I am at the top of some ancient steps. I'm trying to look like some powerful ancient ruler or something. Can't you just imagine it?



















There were some pretty amazing views. Here is my friend on the edge of the hill.











In other news, I almost got to meet the president of Ecuador. He was in the building where I was having class, talking to some director of the school or something. We waited for a while to see if he would come out to his car, but we didn't see him. Some of my friends got to meet him and take pictures and talk to him and such. Hopefully he'll come around again.

That's about it for now. Que te vaya bien! (Hope all goes well with you!)

Que lindo!!! La foto con tu amiga es fantastica! Espero que toda este bien contigo. Te extrano. Cada dia, trato de encontrar cosas de que puedo tomar las fotos para ti pero todavia no he tenido buena suerte con mi idea. Siempre he sabido que eres una superheroe.
