And Ecuador wins for Best ensaladas de frutas among my tour of the Americas, as I believe I have consumed one in at least every country visited except Brazil (Ecuador, Argentina, Uruguay, Chile, and Peru). My decision is based on several criteria, in which Ecua wins for consistency, variety, presence of bananas, size, and price.
Here is a photo of the tasty ensalada de frutas I devoured earlier today, to celebrate speaking to a nice person at Copa Airlines (at the office in Cuenca; although talking to a nice person did not get me on an earlier flight than January 22nd, I at least had a good interaction with a normal person and am not confused and am on a waitlist for each day next week). Although prices went up at this veggie restuarant after the New Year, so this tasty bunch of fruit goodness set me back a whole $1 instead of 80 centavos. But YAY for frutas and mixto mango and strawberry and vanilla yogurt! The mixto concept is another I will want to bring back to the States, because getting a mix (be it of fruits or type of tea or grilled meats) lends well to my characteristic indecisiveness. I will show up at Mighty-o Donuts in Seattle and see if they can get me a mixto pumpkin and brown sugar donut. Mmmm.

Even 1/22 is pretty soon! I am so excited to see you!
Yay Lauren survived Vietnam and Cambodia! Hope Kenny made it home, too, and you still have your passports with dual entry visas intact.
