Ecuador Day 10
Santiago and Bartolome
As the boat was now working again, we were continuing the tour with Isla Santiago. This island would be the last on our tour, and soon we'd be heading back to Ecuador for the final days of this adventure.
Ecuador Day 9
Baltra
After a day of being on a broken boat, we didn't really know what the day had in store for us. There were plans; but it didn't mean they were going to happen or be possible. Our fate lay in the hands of the ships engineer.
Ecuador Day 8
Disaster Aboard the Poseidon
Things were no longer going to plan onboard the Gran Poseidon. The engines had broken; but at least we'd got a scuba diving session booked through a different company - that'd at least give us something to do whilst they sorted it.
Ecuador Day 7
San Cristobal
Before we'd even had breakfast we were already seeing new islands, and wildlife we'd not seen before. Overall though it was a mostly quiet day, with some time spent in the town.
Ecuador Day 6
Española
Our morning walk was like a wildlife documentary as we watched iguanas fighting each other. We got to do a bit more snorkelling in the afternoon, and then a free hour on an island beach towards sunset.
Ecuador Day 5
Plaza Sur and Santa Fe
This was a good day. We got to go on nature walks, seeing so many different species. We even got to do a bit of snorkelling and saw Blue-footed boobies.
Ecuador Day 4
The Galapagos Islands
It was now time to leave Ecuador behind us: flying to the Galapagos Islands for the next stage of our adventure. Here we'd be focussing on wildlife as we took a ship from island to island for the next couple of weeks.
