Saying Goodbye

We climbed winding dirt roads through the mountains, and finally arrived at the paved road to Riobamba. The jungle is now behind us. We stop to climb a tower with a great view of the deep valleys below us. A cold wind and high altitude greets us.

Another hour and we arrive at the beautiful Atillo Lakes nestled high in the Andes Mountains. We continue our journey to Riobamba, begin to pack, and then go out to say all of our goodbyes to family and friends in Ecuador.

It is now Saturday morning and we are leaving for the Guayaquil airport and hope to arrive in New Holland by 2:30 to 3:00 a.m. Sunday morning. We look forward to seeing everyone back home.

Thank you for all your prayers throughout this trip and for our trip home and our adjustment back to Lancaster County and a busy week ahead preparing for Easter.
