Family Celebration in Ecuador
Hello this is Jack reporting from the Annual Family Celebration in Quito, Ecuador. People are having a wonderful time. Most men are cooking a traditional dish called Fanesca. Some women are playing hide-and-seek with their children. The elderly are listening to old music and telling stories from the past.
-I am here with Mario Velasco, the event organizer, and I want to ask him a couple of questions:
Reporter: Mario, how long is the event?
Mario: Well, it started yesterday at 7 AM and it’ll finish tomorrow at 9 PM with a concert.
Reporter: Is this event meaningful for Ecuadorian families?
