Day 8: Group 1 pupils travelled to Quilotoa by bus as you can see in the picture they are all happy with the four hour wait. 
On arrival they bought ponchos to blend in with the locals and keep warm. After a meal from a hostel they trekked down into the beautiful volcanic crater. The pupils camped by the side of the lagoon.
Group 2 began their project work constructing the forest path and building the museum. Below is another colleague which also lives on site.
Day 9: Group 1 had an emotional remebrance service for Mr Kiernan and released some of his ashes into the volcanic lagoon.
They then began their mammoth eight and a half hour trek over the undulating Andean peaks. They eventually arrived at the small town of Chichilan.
Group 2 continued on with their project near the village of Tena.
( We will update more group 2 pictures when we meet up with them at the beach in a few days time.)
Today’s challenge – who owns these body parts from group 1?
