Pato...I am rightfully sunburned after yesterday's trip to Ingapirca. I totally forgot about putting sunscreen on and my arms and neck got it pretty bad. I put on some cream that helps sunburns (it is not aloe vera but it was less expensive and it still does the job.
Today I find that I am missing Caitlin a whole lot. It is a complete change for me to be here -- we spent almost all of our time together when I was in Ohio. Each day is harder in terms of not being around her and not being a part of her life. It is merely the idea of being with her that I miss the most. Simple things. Walking, eating lunch, joking, cuddling... I wish I could be there to talk or eat lunch with her today. I am very sad. I can't wait to talk to her tomorrow. And...thanks for leaving me comments baby -- I love you so much!
Today in class we learned some Andean concepts -- life cycles, the Andean perception of after life, and then we learned how to count in Kichwa.
Later today we have a ceramics class. I hope that my pot that I made for Caitlin last week is finished, at least I hope that it has been cooked in the kiln.
I'll add a picture either later today or tomorrow.
