Day 7 – Galapagos Islands


The boat sailed from Santa Cruz to Sante Fe island, we did walks on both islands and snorkelled off the coast of Santa Fe and saw Reef Sharks, Turtles, Manta Rays but by far the funniest were the sea lions – which are huge.


Our guide seems to be a reincarnation of Johnny Morris and never fails to miss an opportunity to imitate an animal. Any animal. Even ones that are not found on the islands. At first it was barely funny but when he does it outside your cabin window as a wake-up call it is far less so. If he keeps doing it he'll discover I've found a new use for a pelican's beak.


By 8.30 just about everyone was exhausted, our state of inertia not helped by the fact that both lunch and dinner consisted of three huge courses. I was in bed and asleep by 10 – Rock 'n Roll!
