Today, we spent the day at Isla Floreana.

We started with a hike at Punta Cormorant.

After our hike, we went snorkeling. I wish I had an underwater camera! A giant alpha male sea lion swam right next to me. He was so close I could almost touch him.

This afternoon we are kayaking and visiting Post Office Bay, also on Isla Floreana.

Monday afternoon we went for a hike at Punta Pitt, on Isla San Cristóbal.

Monday evening, we dropped anchor back in the harbor near the airport.

Monday, while we were sleeping, our boat navigated to Isla Española.

This was my second night ever sleeping on a boat. And it’s seriously difficult to sleep while navigating through choppy water.

On Isla Española, we went for another hike.

After our hike, we went snorkeling, and then for a stroll along the beach at Gardner Bay.

[Hopefully the image quality is ok. I’m using an app on my iPhone to make them smaller to upload.]

Tomorrow we’ll be arriving at Floreana Island.

Our first afternoon on the boat, we cruised over to see Kicker Rock.

Today is our first full day on the boat.

This morning, we took the pangas over to Cerro Brujo. I saw my first blue-footed booby, but didn’t get a good photo.

This afternoon, we’re going on our first hike, at Punta Pitt.
