Fortunately the shuttle boat ride back was with fewer people and much calmer waters. We arrived in Puerto Ayora around 8am. Just in time for breakfast.
We checked into the Hotel España and quickly realized we liked this hotel over the Hostal Gardner next door. For $30/night we got a fan and air-conditioning. And the place was pretty quiet, thus far.
Kathleen and I took the day pretty easy with a hike out to Tortuga Bay via a brick path that was nearly 2 miles long.
The day was good and hot with a fine dose of humidity.We found Tortuga Bay a nice stretch of beach.
The Galapagos Mockingbirds would periodically flit about foraging on the stone path.
We returned to our room early as yet again the next day was going to start early with a trip to Bartolome Island.
Not sure if you'll get this comment by the time needed! But thought I'd try anyways. I'd still love to see you guys between when I come back to San Diego on Sunday afternoon (Jan 31) and when you start heading north for the big move. Give me a call if you get this: 619-865-6423
