Musings from Quito

We arrived in Quito April 22, and Rocky had training from Monday – Thursday and He was about meeting out…. Over the weekend we just hung out so Rocky could rest up. Dorothy was ready to get because she had been holding down the fort while Rocky, Fletcher and Ruby were doing all kinds of important stuff. Saturday we met Al and Anna for lunch because they were leaving for state side and we would not be seeing them again. Sunday we went to church at the Spanish Baptist church that is in the neighborhood. Really enjoy singing hymns even in Spanish because they are so familiar. Went home to a lovely lunch that Ruby and I had prepared. Monday we waited and wondered about the house deal and what was happening with it. Monday afternoon we moved over to apt 1007. It is always so fun to hang out at Ruby’s and Fletcher’s but you after 3 days guest begin to smell…lol Tuesday rocky had dr. appointment for a checkup and had lab work. He will go back to Dr. and get results on Monday 14th. Havn’t eaten to much fast food because not on our diet but ok. I made French fried radishes last night and not to bad!! Rocky left for Suriname Saturday 5th at 4:00 am and I have been hanging out with the bird… When we were up here in Jan. I had had a checkup with the dr. and she had wanted me to have an ultra sound on my breast but we were heading back to Zomora and told her I would get it when we came back to Quito and she had said that was ok. So on Monday I went over to the place they do all of these different test. Awesome place, so clean and state of the art machines and everyone is so kind…. I made an appointment for 3:00 and was told to bring my mammogram results with me and as how the dr gave me all of the test results when I was here in Jan… I had them. Went back at 2:30 for appointment..It cost 40.00 and was given my results with the pictures in 30 min. after the test. The test in Spanish is called Ecografia de Mamas The breast are called “The Mamas” Anyway it all looks just find and will see Dr. at 3:00 today for results. About to go and have coffee with Cindy and Ruby at one of the Malls……
