Ecuador, Day 0

I am trying very hard to enjoy the sensation of -25 weather. Really. I am in Calgary, overnighting before heading for Guayaquil tomorrow, and it is incredibly, bitterly cold. It's not that I am unfamiliar with inclement weather: we had quite a spell of -20 to -30 weather in Cranbrook during December. But when you get these really cold temperatures during March -- when really it should be spring -- it just feels more savage. Google tells me that it was 31 in Guayaquil today so perhaps in barely 24 hours (or so) I will be wistfully remembering this sojourn in Calgary.

We must be up at 4:45 tomorrow morning so I will cut this short!
