Taking time to smell the roses

Through a contact from my old job, we got set up to take a tourof a rose farm-- one of the biggest in Ecuador.

We were shown around by Rafael and Daniella- two incredibly kind and wonderful people who didn't mind our lack of buying power.

Roses-- so pretty. It was a nice break from 10 hours on busses (which is how we spent the 2 days prior).
