Ecuador to Brooklyn

We made it back from Ecuador to East Quogue on Sunday and back to Brooklyn on Veteran's Day. Verizon shut off our phone and Internet connection prematurely and I was able to reconnect only a couple of days ago (and not through Verizon). Ironically, there were e-mails in my Out box which then went out two weeks late! We still have no phone service and no direct e-mail capability (I am using a neighborhood wi-fi network instead). I am doing phone calls on Skype (my Skype number is (718) 354-8817; not sure if you can leave messages but I think so). And this e-mail address works as long as I can get on a wi-fi network!

Southern Ecuador was a great place to see birds -- more than 500 species! I'm preparing a trip report which I'll send out when it's finished. It was a spectacular two weeks!
