(Saturday, April 23, Day 306)

Phrase of the day: Treinta y seis horas en San Isidro: Piscinas, Tortas, y Arreglando mi equipaje!... Thirty-six hours in San Isidro: Pools, Cakes, and Packing!

After a much needed shower, I hung all of my clothing to air out. They all smell like firewood from the few days in Tingo. And they all smell like me, seeing as how we didn't shower there, not even once. Gross!

I was back in town for a quick trip, mostly just to pack my suitcase for my trip home! To my surprise, Luis was in town from Guayaquil, which always means fun. He loves doing things, as opposed to the usual sitting around. First stop, one of the three pools in town!
Yeah, it's really odd that there are pools like this in town. They feel out of place, but I can't complain; they are refreshing. And only $1/day! Actually, that's like half a lunch, so maybe kind of pricey? The bar beside it serves water and the usual staple in Ecuador, beer.
After the pool we celebrated Zhary's birthday. She's a host cousin who turned 6 or 7? There was morrocho(a corn based dessert-drink), cake, fish, and of course rice! Needless to say, I stuck to the desserts.
And guess what?... there is Viennetta here! I know, San Isidro just became that much cooler.
Next stop, Los Estados Unidos!
