Lizz Arrives!

Lizz arrived yesterday in the madrugada (butt crack of dawn). After trying to sneak on ¨contraband¨ (a leatherman), having to deal with a customs form entirely in Spanish, and surviving the turbulance of hurricane Wilma she arrived, haggared, (Lizz´s word choice) in Simon Bolivar International Airport, Guayaquil.

-Climbing the 400 some steps of Las Peñas, for the best view of Guayaquil
-Riding ¨El Morgan¨pirate ship and getting ripped off like the gringos we are
-Watching game one of the World Series of Baseball with my host family
-Trying to explain chewing tobacco and sunflower seeds
