i bet these captions are going to be alllllll messed up....

alright, well maybe there was going to be some sort of rhyme or reason to how these pictures go, but i guess there's not.... so anyway....
it's going to be kind of random... GUESS WHO THIS IS!?


















chris attacking me and ale at the beach, as we lounge on our hammocks that are 100% pretty safe...

it's water, i swear!



pedro was not actually at the wedding... but i did run into him at las penas!!








cuy, anyone?

banos was sweet!!! anife (sofia's sister) and rigoberto (anife's friend) and i went. it was much further than we thought--i was expecting 6 hours each way and it was 9-10, but it was SO WORTH IT!! we went on a tour to see a bunch of waterfalls, and went up to the top of one mountain to get a view of the VOLCAN TUNGURAHUA... which erupted pretty bigtime last july/august.







whoa, sofia. simmer down!
some of us at the malecon riverwalk... yay!

Ok, sorry for not writing just one big comment, but where's the fun in that anyway??
So, there's one picture of us that's on there twice =P , I don't know if you noticed. Yeah. It's awesome =)
That's all I wanted to say.

Wait! There's something else: I love the picture of you with the sunglasses =D
