Arising in Casa Foch

After a very smooth and short arrival at the airport, my group and I were bussed to our temporary living quarters, which is a very beautiful place owned by the same folks that also own and operate the Andean Studies Program, which I am participating in for this semester. The two buildings are across the street from each other.

I had a hard time wanting to sleep...but I knew that we would have to be ready for today so I fooled myself into counting llamas. I woke up earlier than I ever do and that must be due to the excitement I am feeling.

Here are some pictures of the place I am staying:
















And the last pic is a view from my rooftop window...which I instantly had to climb out onto last night.


Now I must go meet up with the professor and have some breakfast.

Love to all.

Cory

Wow, it's so cool to see where you are already this morning...blogs must have been invented by Moms wanting to keep track of their kids...
Glad you made it there,
Love, Mom

hi cory--so glad you liked your stay at casa foch. i actually worked with lori and juan miguel for six months last year, and that design was one that i did for them. so it was exciting to run across a picture online (it wasn't up when i left last november). i hope you're enjoying your time in ecuador. i studied at andean studies and it was great, so i'm sure you're having a wonderful time. let me know if you want any recommendations (winnab@gmail.com).
