Galápagos

This morning we visited Punta Suarez on Española - one of the most interesting places in the Galápagos Islands.  Although it was hot, we had a breeze for most of the visit, and were unusually lucky with wildlife.  In particular, we saw several Galápagos Albatross - these animals reproduce on this island and nowhere else, but have usually gone out to sea by the end of December.

Everyone is feeling better now... although a few of the students (and instructors) have complained about the rocking and rolling in the boat.  The seas are rougher than usual for this time of year - Personally, I love it!

The internet connection here is quite slow, so neither Ruth nor I seem to be able to upload photos.
