Correction re Kichwa and oil


Correction:  I wondered how they used a school bus since I thought, and found it is true that there are NO roads I this part of Ecuador. No horses.  ALL transportation is on the river or on foot.  So the school bus is actually 3 motorized canoes. We were ferried back to Quito in one of them this morning.  They are clearly not new but solid.  Each holds about 20 passengers. 

The motors are strong so they run like a speedboat.  One goes up the river.  One down and one across  to get the students..
