Cars

Ecuador is awkward when it comes to cars. There's are some very old some very new but here is a list of all the things that I've noticed that are different:
1>Half of them aren't even cars. There are more dirtbikes than there are cars. No motorcycles just dirtbikes.We saw a whole family once on A dirtbike. Here's how the order went from front to back. BABY son, Dad, Baby daughter, Mom. It was awsome.
2>The law doesn't state that you have to buckle. Since I've been in Ecuador I haven't touched a seat belt.
3>Seats can be backwards in a car. In one of Cesar's vans he has backwards seats.
4> People are allowed to pile in the back of pick-up trucks. There was a garbage truck, no bigger nor smaller than any of ours at home, had a guy on top of it holding down a tarp becuase it was raining. It was one of thase automatic trucks that are made to pick up dumpsters with the arms that lift it into the top. That's where the guy was holding it just flying down the road like he was surfing.
5>EVERY SINGLE CAR IS STICK SHIFT.

In conclusion to Ecuadorian cars I believe that these people are better driver's than my dad. These dudes could drive Nascar in their sleep. We all really feel safe not buclking in taxis becuase they are such good drivers.


P.S. Adam is felling better after being sick for a week. Also If any of my cousins are reading this, The Finley girls, I have finally figured out where you are going to sleep but you'll have to wait 'til you get here to find out where!?!?!?!?!? HA!
