Surprises

Long time since the last post. There are not a lot of surprises in the political environment in Ecuador. President Correa was reelected and his political movement got a tremendous majority in local governments as in the National Assembly. The new four year period is going to be inaugurated next august, just when the bicentennial of the independence is going to be celebrated.

However the lack of surprises in politics, weather has been very intense in the last days. And yesterday was particularly strong. Rain, wind and hail. Some walls were destroyed because of that event. There were lots of traffic and people in north of Quito were scared for a while.
