As some of you may know, one of the highlights of our plans
was to volunteer at an animal rescue in the rainforest. We were looking forward
to what was likely going to be rewarding and fun.
Unfortunately, due to a few major snafus by the company
organizing it (like not telling us an actual name or location until about hours
before we were scheduled to start), we were forced to make alternate plans.

That would have been this previous week, and by the time
everything went down, it was too late to find another volunteer opportunity.
Therefore, we moved our plans up a week, going to the Quilotoa
Loop on Tuesday and coming to Quito for five days. It’s been nice.
Since we started the South American leg with a must-see
(Machu Picchu), we decided we might as well end it with another one.
So we’re heading to the Galapagos Islands on Sunday.
Needless to say, we are disappointed about not working with
the animal rescue, but trips like this can change suddenly. And I think we made
a great decision.
If you don’t hear from us between Sunday and Sunday, it’s
because we’re floating about 600 miles off the coast of mainland Ecuador,
playing with penguins, tortoises and sea lions.
