Family Weekend

I only have two full weekends left in Ecuador, and next weekend we are going to the Galapagos, so that means only one weekend left in Quito. To seize this weekend, I spend ALL day Saturday with the family. First, Sophia and Amy demanded in dressing up in their Belle and Snow White dresses and giving a talent show.

Sophia as Belle, playing the Recorder.

Then we went to Amy and Sofia's school, La Presentación, to see and participate in the "feria"/class olympics. There were dances, skits, tons of children; it reminded me of camp...

Then we went to their tennis camp and watched them learn how to properly serve. Of course both girls are WAY better than me.

After a quick lunch we went to their Oratory Class where they present weekly poems on some sort of theme. This week's theme was 'Quito' and they couldn't find poems that they liked, so Azucena wrote very nice poems for both girls. They performed them SO well and I was so proud of them, but the judges were obviously wrong and didn't give neither Amy nor Sophia a medal. Jerks. :)

Amy frantically waving her hands to make a point.

And then, very late in the evening, we ate Domino's Pizza and Coca-Cola (as a treat for the girls) for dinner. I really am going to miss my family. They're all so great.
