Dec 28: Galapagos Day 1: Sea Lions

Finally on to the heart of this trip: the Galapagos Islands. We met up with out friends, John & Becky from Sydney, on the short flight out to the islands. From there, a four minute bus ride took us to our boat, the Eric where we expected to settle in for a nice relaxing afternoon of leasure...


Not quite. Instead we were immediately taken for an introductory snorkle on a nearby beach, which involved swimming in and among sea lions and the occasional manta ray. None of the animals have the slightest fear of humans so you can get as close to them as your guide allows you.

Finally we had a sunset tour around a large volcanic rock formation.

Life on the boat is pretty rough: breakfast, lunch, & dinner; snacks; a bar; TV; DVD; and several sun decks. We could get used to the sea life.
