we should have known

We should have known that it would not be that easy! Our visas are still at the consulate in Toronto! First we were told that we needed to pay $260 as they had not been paid for in Ecuador....although we know that they were indeed paid for. However, to keep things simple we paid the required amount and then were told that we could pick the visas up on Monday. We reminded them that we had been told on the phone that they would be ready for pick up when we arrived. But apparently we had been misinformed because of course they had to see our passports first. We happily produced our passports but naturally that did not really help any as the visas would still not be ready for pickup until Monday. So.... guess where we are going on Monday!

On a happier note.... we have more camp pictures. These are courtesy of Heather Moore, who is also committing to a year in Ecuador and should arrive shortly after us.

Verse for the day:

John 8:42,43

42Jesus said to them, "If God were your Father, you would love me, for I came from God and now am here. I have not come on my own; but he sent me. 43Why is my language not clear to you? Because you are unable to hear what I say.
