11/17/2014 - CHRISTMAS before Thanksgiving!

It´s Christmas time! ...or at least here it is.  Thanksgiving isn´t an Ecuadorian Holiday and there´s aren't any major holidays after Halloween, so people go strait to Christmas!  Anyone who has money decorates the front of their apartment with lights and other people buy a little Christmas tree.  I was in down town Quevedo today and I saw a lot of other crazy Christmas decorations there as there´s a little more wealthy population over there.

Christmas season is just barely starting up, but I can already tell that it isn´t gonna feel much like Christmas.  There´s something about the cold, the hot chocolate, the fire, and the decorated city centers that make Christmas awesome!  That and family, family completes everything.  Just remember, I love the cold.  You´re all telling me that you´re jealous of me and my hot weather, but I´m over here singing ¨I´m dreaming of a white Christmas¨

It´s actually been really cloudy here lately.  We COULD call it winter but I´ve been told that there´s only two seasons here: winter and rain.

Right now it looks like it´s going to rain every day, but never really does. And it´s STILL HOT, and the clouds are only a lot of the time.  The rest of the time is blunt sunlight.

...It has just come to my attention that I didn´t take pictures this week.  ...dang...

...I´ve got nothing else to write...

I hope everything is alright back home!  Drive safe out there, I remember those roads at this time of year and they aren´t pretty.

Love you all and... yeah.
