I am in Quito, Ecuador and getting ready to go to the small beach town(Bahia), and then on Sunday to the farm where I will be staying for 1 month. After that my family and I will head to Lima,Peru and on to the Amazon and the machupecthu ruins.Yesterday we went to the equator, took lots of pictures and went to a hands on museum about the equator, they had lots of activities on the north and south hemisphere. One of the things I found the most interesting was that when you walk on the equator line it is very hard to balance. We also got to see that on the north and west hemisphere water spins in different directions( counter-clockwise or clockwise).
Miss you,
