Puerto Engabao & Guayaquil

The friendly "Hostal Engabao" in Puerto Engabao,

Ecuador

First try to build stairs to Helena's Cabaña on the 

second floor.

Stairs almost completed.

Full moon cooking, Puerto Engabao.

Our first beer can chicken.

Our first farewell BBQ with lots of nice people.

We returned here after my surgeries in Guayaquil,

which wasn't known yet at the time.

Part of Ecuador's core of surfing and us :)

Helena at work.

Jimmy and Milton's shaping workshop in Playas.

Kim's new style after the accident (fin stab) 

surfing at Playas. It's also thanks to this incident 

that the locals are calling me "Machete Fin".

First unsuccessful period of recovery, unfortunately 

after insufficient surgery in Playas.

Second period of recovery after 3 more surgeries 

and several days in hospital in Guayaquil.

Mom and Bernie could have thought of a better way

of spending their holiday than hospital visits in 

Guayaquil. Anyway, thanks for everything!

First look at my new behind...

Our short visit to Guayaquil after having 

been in hospital for nearly a week.

Parque Bolivar, Guayaquil

Animals in Parque Historico, Guayaquil

Historical buildings were relocated from the center

of town to the Parque Historico, Guayaquil.

Taking a rest since I'm not allowed to

walk very far...

Back at Puerto Engabao, Andy enjoying the surf -

me curing the wound and getting impatient...

Hopefully back to surf by next week.
