A trip to Ecuador…..

This is a picture of the Chimborazo volcano erupting as seen from the capital city of Quito.

Here children in Ecuador can learn about how volcanoes are formed and what causes them to erupt.

A very hands on science museum very much like our own Science City.

The very popular shopping mall, QuiCentro. Can you see some similarities to our malls here in Kansas?

La playa. The beach. Notice the ladder used to climb to get fresh coconuts?

A very well traveled bridge over un río. Would you walk or drive across?

En el supermercado. How many fruits do you recognize? Do you see the red

bananas growing on the trees?

Driving in Quito. Just like in Kansas while driving in the downtown area you will see a lot more traffic.

El Mariposario – The Butterfly Farm

Traditional Andean music.

¡Los payasos!
