Andres and Meredith and their 3 children (ages 4, 8 and 11) arrived Wednesday after extremely long travels caused by a flight cancellation in New York and the resulting scramble for different flight arrangements. However, after nearly 30 hours and very little sleep we finally arrived! The kids were incredibly patient! Thanks, guys!
We caught up on sleep and with family members and are enjoying ourselves immensely, especially since we arrived for Las Fiestas de Quito! One of the fun things to see is Las Chivas - open buses with bands playing on the top deck and people having lots of fun dancing and singing. We have been pleasantly surprised by changes in Quito, such as less pollution, safer streets, new attractions.
We are preparing details and materials for our first workshops, taking place next week in Quito.
We will add pictures soon, so check back!
Lauren, an invited theater artist, arrived Tuesday and will post her experience, too.
Pedro, a Semilla artist, arrives tonight.
