Pictures from the South Coast of Ecuador

Below are some pictures from the last 2 weeks:

These are some of my friends from Quito. They grew up in the Galapagos Islands but came to Quito because of their band....Arcabuz

As I mentioned earlier...here are the Sharks that were caught off the coast of Manta. This is the picture I got yelled at for taking.

The next 4 pictures show the different stages of the shipbuilding I talked about.
In the first picture you can see one of the men using a chain saw to shape the logs.
I thought this was pretty amazing.

Here are a few pictures from the cliffs above the beach....near Puerto Lopez along the coast of Ecuador.

Ramon, Andy, Scott, Fani, and Gina in Puerto Lopez

The main attraction near Puerto Lopez was whale watching. I was skeptical beforehand but the guide came through and Scott got some good action shots (see below)
