chillin on the coast in canoa

here is a picture tour of my easter break vacation with my mom(sorry you couldnt make it dad :(..... enjoy!


picture from our hotel (17.90 a night)











my mom and i on a water ferry
















picture of our daily beach spot. all the carps were available for purchase...and the vendors would ride and push their carts to sell things to you. you wouldnt even have to move! how convenient!







vendors and busier beach in manta (on our way back to quito)

plane going back to quito. you walk out on the runway.
















mom and an ice cream vendor














mom in our room with mosquito nets over our beds!

another breathtaking view from our hotel














luis and i...after my surfing lesson! it was fun and hard. after 2 hours of hard work and a lot of salt water, i made it up on my knees without any hands on the board 3 or 4 times. i never made it standing up. maybe next time. mom tried it after me.








beautiful sunset! sunset number 2 is with a surfer in the picture! there were so many surfers in canoa! they would surf until after the sunset. it was cool watching them.


now i am just trying to figure out how i can get back there before i leave. it was awesome
