Oh wow. These past four days have been full of surprises. I sort of didn´t believe Dan when he said that, as cheesy as it sounds, the Galapagos are truly "magical," as if they were not of this Earth, but boy is he right. I´ve swum with sea lions, turtles, and sting rays, watched baby sea lions suckle their mothers and fluffy baby blue footed boobies squack for food. I´ve seen rainbows fly from blowholes, male tortoises fight over water, and beaches overrun with crabs and sea lions alike, many covered in invasive flies gradually consumed by curious mockingbirds. I´ve snorkeled, swum, jumped off the top of a boat, eaten bananas off the tree, and some of the most delicious food I never expected. Many of you may be disappointed that only very few pictures of my time in the Galapagos will be forthcoming, at least from my camera, as I have been so enjoying the beautiful sights that I don´t want to muddy them by way of inadequate pictures. Don´t worry - many of my friends have snapped lovely pictures, and plenty of me, that I´ll be making use of.
I know this is an uncharacteristically short post for me, and I promise I´ll continue adding, but I need to go explore San Cristobal now :) .
Much love,
Signing off,
Egg
