We spent the first 2 nights in Guayaquil, and I got to watch as my parents made their first impressions of Ecuador. The heat was definietely something they couldn´t ignore as Guayquil was having some of its hottest days of the year. We ate at good restaurants, walked around the melecon and hung out with iguanas in the park. Then it was time to send my parents off on their Galapagos cruise, and my sister and I headed back to my site to put on a the Fuerza Femenina, Women´s Conference. Enjoy the pix from my family´s tour of Ecuador.
One of the photos my parents brought back from their amazing crusie in the Galapagos. The mischievous little sealion kept wanting to play with the land iguanas tail.
Our fabulous hotel in Puerto Lopez, Hosteria Mandala...one I would definitely recommend
