I think today was Emilie's favorite day. It is a day off for Ecuadorian so they can celebrate Carnaval. Everywhere in Ecuador they have festivities, but Ambato is internationally famous for its Fiesta de la Fruta y de las Flores.
We start our day by going to a new Mercado. Very neat and beautiful. We have lunch there and shop for some fruits and veggies for Zoilita. We also buy pure Ecuadorian chocolate. So yummy! I have quinoa and of course, my jugo de coco con mora!
In the afternoon, we invite Emilie's primos to come with us to the fair across the street. Sebastian, Marcela and Domenica arrive and they have a great time. Jumpers, aqua-ball, vicuña ride, good food, so many things to enjoy! We stay there until night falls. This is a new feeling for Emilie and for us too. We are not used to spend time with family and we really like it.
