next stop -surfing and spanish lessons for 2 weeks

We arrived in the industrial fishing port of Manta saturday night to find we are staying with a lovely family in a great house just 10mins walk from the beach, right near the main street for shops and night life and they have a pool in the garden!!! Definitely got the general feeling we've landed on our feet. Camilla is our host and has two sons and a lovely wider family who we have visited as well - they were all very welcoming. Her son Paul speaks very good english which is a great help. On sunday we've just chilled out, gone to the beach and back and then attended mass at the catholic church in the evening with Camilla - just like church at home - singing, a preach, say hello to some people, have communion and go home - moi bien!
