We are heavily into the rainy season here in Quito, but a couple days ago when the sun came out again I was struck by the beauty of the view from our home.

The best part of the rain, in my opinion, is to awaken after a full night of showers and smell that the air is full of eucalyptus. It's a wonderful scent to begin the day with.

Happy Thanksgiving in the U.S.A. today! Gobble gobble!
