Dear reader,

In 2 weeks we are leaving for Ecuador!! Our house is mostly packed so it feels kinda weird. Like when your looking for something and it's nowhere to be found, cause it's packed. Here's the plan in Ecuador:


Week 1: Hacienda San Martine & Hacienda El Porvenir. Haciendas are big farms owned by families. At the first hacienda we are going to milk cows. NO THANKS!! At the 2nd hacienda we are riding horses up the side of a volcano. YAY!!


Week 2: Timpe family farm home stay. The Timpe family is from Ecuador and we will stay at their home with them. We will cook with them and work on their farm with them. They also have grand children who are my age so I will get some friends to play with.


Week 3: Galapagos!! The Galapagos are a series of islands off the coast of Ecuador. They are very famous for their amazing animals.

You will only see the following animals in the Galapagos:

1: Marine Iguanas

2: Giant Tortises

3: Darwin's Finches


The thing that I am most exited about on the Galapagos is snorkeling with seals and Marine Iguanas!!


Thanks for reading!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Bye!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



- Ginny!

Ginny, just get the future veterinarian(Baker)to milk the cows. And you, the future marine biologist, can swim with the sea creatures. Love, Q
