Pan Babies and a Symphony

Friday night the program treated us to a very special cultural event. Day of the Dead is coming up, and in Ecuador it's tradition to eat guaguas de pan aka bread babies filled with jelly, and drink colada morada aka this fruity purple drink. So, we all went to the office and found our guaguas with our names on them:
(disclaimer: all the pictures are a little blurry, I apologize but something is going on with my flash...)




Me and Caroline drinking Colada Morada

We then all piled into a tiny van thing (it should not have been able to fit all of us...) and made our way to the Casa de La Musica for the National Ecuadorian Symphony!


 Me and Bethany waiting to go into the Auditorium.




A row full of Gringos. 

So yeah, pretty laid back Friday night, and I must say I didn't mind the classical music too much!

Have a good weekend!
