Guayaquil by Roger
When we arrived in Guayaquil it felt like a blanket was thrown over us. The temperature has been constantly warm with high humidity. Fortunately the sky has been cloudy most of the time so it is usually very comfortable . We have welcomed the rain nearly every day…for an hour or two and also often it rains at night. We sleep with large windows wide open and drapes thrown back to get any available breeze and are surprised that bugs, animals, or birds have not entered the room in the night or day. The main problem with the open windows is the traffic noise which begins very early and also the neighborhood dogs which sleep all day so don’t seem to need any rest at night.We have adequate time to walk and explore the part of the city where we are staying and have found many stores, restaurants, and even a shopping mall with a large supermarket. Sonia and Tatiana assure us that it is safe to walk around this area and we are feeling more comfortable as we venture out more. Alexandria, adopted 29 year old daughter, has enjoyed helping us prepare materials for the classes that we have been teaching in the school. She seems to enjoy getting hugs from Jane and is a willing worker. She was adopted by this family when she became too old to continue at the foundation where Sonia is director. Sonia tells us that she prays for patience and also that God should bring her love.
