Gracie is irresistible. Quite the cutie. I made sure my partner, Barbara, caught sight of this as she has two dogs and their well-being plays a part in her consideration of Ecuador as a possible new home.
I couldn't stand to have one full time. I get too attached and when it's time for them to cross the rainbow bridge, I'm devastated. I do just fine taking care of someone else's.
Thank you Don. Another stellar video. Price wise, is there a less expensive time to come for a visit to Ecuador or are hotels and taxis and such priced higher at different times than others?
I came to Ecuador. . met with a doctor for $20. He gave me a 90 day prescription for one of my meds (Ambien) the other 3 required no prescription so I walked into Fybeca and got what I needed, Propanolol, Rosuvastatin and Levothyroxine. Piece of cake!
I think doctor's make a distinction between (1) speaking in general terms about which medications effectively duplicate the function of others and (2) actually prescribing such medication for a patient.
Great videos. But if you are open to suggestions, I have one. If not, throw it in the circular box If some of you subscribers are tired of listening to the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th video on the same subject, I gotta believe you might be tired of doing them Per haps an index of important topics?

What a cute little puppy !
Thanks so much Don!
Don! Great to see you! Love the Q&As! Keep 'em comin!
Thanks! Will do!
Hi Gracie! You are so cute. Enjoy your stay at hotel Don.
its GM ACE's Birthday. Take him to lunch for all of us :-) Super young man!!!! :-) thanks Don
Happy birthday young man!
Cute puppy!
She is adorable!
She's stealing my heart every day.
The hundred and 50 dollar bills are truly a struggle
Lolol
So.... what was with the lion cub popping up from your lap at around 6:00?? Are you testing how closely we are paying attention?
Yep. That's Mr. Parker trying to steal the show. Glad you're paying attention.
beautiful golf course. how much, 9,,,18 holes? " HI Juan!!! "
18
@@DonShader $18. for 18 holes. very reasonable. exciting.
I'd bet you would be an awesome neighbor Don.
Yeah, I'm sure that would be true except for all the noise and revelry coming from his apartment every night and day - being the party animal he is. 🤣
Are guns heavily regulated in Ecuador? Can anyone purchase a gun? I've seen security guards in the condo I stay at have one.
Very much so. There are no gun stores and guns are prohibited without special permit.
@@DonShader Is it hard to get a gun permit? Can anyone get one like in the US in Texas?
@@Dahon5 It's extremely hard if not impossible. Not worth the trouble.
“If you don’t like this video.. “ had me busting out laughing
Let's talk Google Voice again!!! 🤣
Does it smell like fish in Manta? Tuna fish factories 🏭
No.
Don, so enjoy your videos. You need a puppy of your own. We make Mommy laugh every day. Luna & Rebel

How is the poppy doing?
Driving me nuts.
Thank you Don. Another stellar video. Price wise, is there a less expensive time to come for a visit to Ecuador or are hotels and taxis and such priced higher at different times than others?
Yes of course. It's called the low season, which we are in now.
Would September or October be a good time to visit price wise and hows the weather those months?
great Q Wiggy. Maybe Don and GM Ace could do a video together to answer that! 🙂
Hmmm. A doctor's office answering med substitution questions for someone that's not one of their clients?
Absolutely. This is NOT North America.

Whatsapp is every travellers friend it's probably the most important tool in your travelling/expat toolbox!
You need to sell Tee-shirts that say "Bite Me" and "Chao-chao"
You got an idea there.
Agree! Juan wonderful service, very helpful!
We agree!
Oh what a cutie!!!
And the little dog is cute too. :-)

Per haps an index of important topics?
That is a good idea and I have been working on it. It's gonna take some time to get it done because I have so many videos.
Thanks for bringing it up.
@@DonShader some time?
I bet it's going to to take alot of time
Hi Don. Great video (as usual!). Quick question: Is there a "high season" in Manta? If so, when? Thanks!
More than likely it'll be during Ecuador's warmer season: December through March(?)
