Day 2 in the Galapagos began with a sunrise hike up the highlands for a beautiful view. Then after a quick breakfast we packed up to head into the town of Puerto Ayora and the Charles Darwin Research Centre where we saw lots more giant tortoises.
We had a local lunch of vegetable soup with popcorn (the Ecuadorian alternative to crackers on soup) and ceviche.
Then it was a hot walk to the boat that would take us to the Island of Floreana. Floreana is one of the smaller islands of the Galapagos with a population of 100.
We were greeted at the dock by a group of sea lions and iguanas. After settling in to our guest houses we went for a snorkel. The water was a little murky but we still got to see a sea turtle swim underneath us.
Finally, before dinner we watched the sunset on the beach.Lue lisää
