Ecuador!!!!

The time is near, tropical jungles, warm water, boofin', and of course South American women. As Ben and I prepare for our first ever international kayaking adventure the question pops up, What the hell should I bring? We will be boating around the country for 17 days, and traveling via bus and Taxi. We plan on staying in local hostals within the towns of Baeza, Tena, and Banos. Packing for our trip is quite a process. This is what we've come up with so far.
