We’re leaving Real Soon Now…

Hi all,

We’re done with our work here. That is *we’re* done. The work, alas, still remains. We have left our mark. We have encourage people here, and have been encouraged. The buses arrive in about 2.5 hours, so we’re busy packing up, separating our give-away clothes, and other give-away things.

We’ll be taking a bus to Guayaquil, overnighting there, then getting an early flight to Galapagos. Not sure of internet connectivity from here on out, so I’ll update if and when I can.

See you on the return side.

Links…

Since I’m not sure if links are visible, here is the principal useful one…

I have some photos and videos up there already.

Probably won’t be using Flickr this trip.

We’ve arrived!

We’re here! In Ecuador, that is. All are doing well, minor bites, cuts and bruises from yesterday’s work. Here are some pictures of our travels. Pictures of work will be up soon.

We’re ready to go from SFO!

Welcome to the MVA Ecuador Mission Trip Blog

Tonight we’re going to meet at the airport and head down to Ecuador. Jose (and, hopefully, Elizabeth) from Chile are already there. We’re expecting a long and hectic trip to the outskirts of Santo Domingo de los Colorados in Ecuador.

Join us in the journey by following this blog. (I *understand* that internet access is readily available at the school we’ll be staying and working at.) I’ll be posting pictures and updates, hopefully each day. Please add your comments and greetings.

They’ll be some pictures and video here. You’ll be able to find more pictures on my Facebook account. You can link to me at http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=621847090.
