Meeting Old Friends

We had a lovely day today. We had a busy morning racing to the old town to buy some last souvenirs and then back to the new town for our favourite chocolate cake and hot chocolate in a café we found the previous week. After lunch we got a taxi to the charity office and were taken to a community outside Quito to meet the child we sponsor. It was so nice to meet him after writing for so many years. His family were very friendly and we chatted easily for a few hours before we went back to Quito. Even though his family don’t have much they were so generous and warm to us it was a humbling experience. We finished a great day with a lovely Thai meal at Siam restaurant in the new part of Quito.
