time seems to stand quite still
in a child's world
it always will
it always will
yesterday's dreams are tomorrow's sighs watch children playing they seem so wise

By the way... I'm in Ecuador (Child's Play)
yesterday's dreams are tomorrow's sighs watch children playing they seem so wise
song lyrics written by Moody Blues
By the way... I'm in Ecuador Part III
Can you hear this?? They are crickets though I haven't seen them come out...
In the evening they sing in chorus to the cacophony of the barrio perros
It sounds like wooden blocks tapping
or fingers snapping

By the way... I'm in Ecuador
The past few days have been simple.
Monday was Independence day.
The Children played at the Park
Anabelle and I went to a Parade con Mamita Ana
Anabelle goes to school just up the street every morning from 8am-noon.
I am preparing to paint one of the guest bedrooms and
I am reaquainting myself with the Neighborhood
After picking up Anabelle we eat dinner with Los Abuelos y Matias
afterwards
I take the children out to play

By the way... I'm in Ecuador
I arrived in Quito Ecuador on December 1st. It was a long day of travel; leaving at 6 a.m. and arriving at 10:40 p.m. but my little one was an absolute trooper and a great travel companion.
Later, Los Primos had Ice Cream
Friday Evening I went with mi Cuñada, Ximena and her husband Dani to ride in La Chiva. The first week of December is called Las Fiestas de Quito to celebrate the foundation of the city and its Independence.

Anabelle and I went to our First partido de Futbol
La Liga de Quito
We won 2-0
I will never forget the experience
Los Faniticos Parading back to their cars and homes
Next day, the 2nd, was a day of unpacking and of play
Friday, Anabelle and I walked to the Market, La Floresta's Friday Cornucopia . Before I purchased my produce, Anabelle and I shared jugo de mora (raspberry juice).
and we found a park with a slide!
So much to see! Mountains, Clouds, and Planes momentarily flying by...
Later, Los Primos had Ice Cream
Mora, Vanilla, Chocolate, Coco, Brownie
