Operation Galapagos : Cruising The Islands

Published by Ron at 12:30 pm under Evelyn's Adventures

Evelyn and Deb have arrived safely in the Galapagos. They are on the cruise ship, floating around the islands, and taking a ton of photos. Debbie, a big birder, is going pretty crazy out there. Evelyn is chatting with the locals, being her usual friendly self.

On Sunday they visited Killer Rock (or something) and saw Boobies “making love”. Or “fucking” as Evelyn said. She took photos, of course. :-)

Sounds like they are having a lot of fun, which is cool.

How did I get the update? Why Google Talk, of course! The cruise ship has internet access. It’s expensive, but actually faster than the connection she had at Quito! (Probably because it’s a Hughes Satellite, with a downlink in the U.S.)
