Yesterday morning, just as I opened my eyes, the ground began to shake. I was really confused if I was still dreaming or if it was real life haha. Although the earthquake here was small and short, it shook the house and my bed, which absolutely terrified me since I have never been in an earthquake before. After it was over I ran downstairs, freaking out, asking my mom what on earth just happened. All she said was "Eh. Un temor. Que feo." Hahaha she was really calm but found it funny how much I was freaking out. Anyways, that was cool. Been through my first earthquake!
So tomorrow is Halloween! They don't really celebrate that here (they celebrate day of the dead) but my friends and I decided to dress up anyways. La Plaza Foch, the place where we always go out to party (mainly gringos there), had enough people dressed up so we didn't look too crazy haha.
Cuy (guinea pig that they eat here), Witch, Ninja and Pilesner! (Ecuadorian beer)
The perfect lunch. Cuy con cerveza.
Yay for Halloween in Ecuador! So, in two days I LEAVE FOR THE GALAPAGOS!! Have to battle through a test, project and tons of homework, but then I get to have the vacation of a lifetime. We leave Wednesday and come back on Sunday so I will post pictures then!
