We had time to sleep in and did so a little bit after the early morning ferries on the Galápagos Islands. The breakfast was great with fresh, tasty bananas... Afterwards we walked to the airport, checked in and dropped off the luggage. We were a little bit later than usually but the airport was very calm with only a few people in the waiting areas. As we just had breakfast we weren't hungry, and they didn't offer the typical Ecuadorian breakfast anyways...
We spent the flight watching the next episode of Game of Thrones and it fit almost perfect for the flight time 😁 The service from LATAM has been pretty good so far, somewhere in the middle between low cost and higher standard airlines. After we landed in Lima there was a sign noting that if we don't go directly to the connecting flight we'd have to pay an airport tax. We had planned to use the 8 hour stopover for a quick visit to the city. But a quick Google search said that the airport tax is around 35$ per person which was then too much overall for a 2 hours visit... So I had time to archive the photos from my phone to SD cards, transfer videos and photos from the GoPro to the phone and sort out some photos. We also worked on our plans for the next weeks... There was a Peruvian restaurant in the international departure hall which was a bit expensive but had the classic ceviche on its menu. I've seen the Peruvian ceviche advertised in every country in Latin America so I was excited to try it. And it had a delicious taste but I think the best one so far has been the Ecuadorian one.
Looking through the hours long video footage of the diving and snorkeling trips the time flew... The boarding started at 11 and at exactly midnight we departed further South to Chile.Læs mere
