Christmastime in Ecuador and my Family is here

The first couple of pictures are of my family that has made it to Ecuador. We've been having fun. The first picture here was taken at the equator.
The second one was taken at our house.
The rest of the pictures have to do with Christmastime in Ecuador. The first one is of our tree and nativity set (made of clay pottery).
The next two are of our Poinsettia bush. We planted this when we first arrived and it is really blooming for the Christmas season. Here, it is called 'estrella de Panama' or star of Panama.
The last one here is of what I call 'a Christmas shack.' Christmas is celebrated in a big way here and they have many of these types of shops that sell all types of decorations from lights to ornaments, etc. My favorite is the musical Christmas cards. Guess this is all for now. I hope to post some more family pictures later on.
