Today we got to go to La Veranza and participate in the celebration of nurses with the people of Guayaquil. There were several booths including people who took blood pressures, our own CPR lessons, and other nursing students from the nearby university. It's great to see how much nurses are appreciated, they even had a special mass in the honor of nurses which we were able to attend. At the end of the day we were treated to a yummy lunch and we were also given very nice planners as a way of saying thanks for our help! We had plenty of photo ops with the heads of hospital and later that night Debbie received a "special award" for all the PR encounters she had. Everyone needs a little fun now and then, and we decided to have a little fiesta with pizza and a movie. After we got all the kinks worked out it was a nice relaxing night. We are looking forward to going back to our various locations and continuing to serve to people of Ecuador!!
