quito - part 2

It's been a while since I posted, not because there hasn't been a lot going on, but because there's been so much going on I haven't had the time. This past week (Marcus' last week here) has been, as we like to say "la rally familiar" with lunches, trips, paseos, and a bachelor/ette party that for someone (Marcus) ended at 4 a.m. this morning... and he had to be at the airport at 5... ouch... glad he's traveling solo, even if someone has been crying for him all morning long.
So, very quickly, a few new pics...
6.28.2009 we hosted a lunch for our friends - 14 adults, 12 kids ranging in ages from 9 months to 9 years... had an awesome time. Here Emi is with her "primas" Alegria & Francisca.

Francisca, Emilia, Daniela, & Alegria - fast friends.

the kids loved running along this low wall... Joaquin in front, Emilia (sans shoes of course), and Fran taking care of Emilia.

Wednesday we went to Otavalo with Marcus' parents. First stop was the market where Emilia was fascinated by these little figurines... they were kind of like bobblehead toys.

Emilia ready to start working in the market...Otavalena in the background.
