Plans in flux

It's been a crazy week of ups and downs. We ended up not leaving for the jungle today. It looks like we may not be working with MCCH, at least not to the extent that we were hoping we would. More details on that after the dust settles, as we're still trying to figure out what's going on. Don't want to curse it by posting too many details yet....

For now, we'll be in Quito for the week. We stopped by the Red Cross office this morning to see if they were running any volunteer programs to help the volcano victims. They put us to work right away! The donations are flooding in right now. They need a lot of help sorting, so we spent the morning sorting clothes and shoes into mujeres, hombres, ninos and ninas. It felt great to finally be doing something, as we've just kind of been hanging out for too long!
