Notes from the Field

Galapagos Impressions

We loaded the boat this morning at 8:00 am, transferring everything that we would need for the week into a small inflatable dingy which made three trips out to the M/V Queen Mabel before everything was on-board.

The captain decided that we’d leave port at around 6:00 pm this evening, just as the sun is setting, which after steaming through the night should put us at our first dive site off Isabella Island very early tomorrow morning.  Since this may be my last opportunity to send my impressions until we return from the cruise, I decided to try and put together a few of the things that have caught my eye, my mind and my heart over the past week and to share them by sending along a number of the pictures that I have taken.

The Place, The People, The Wildlife

And with that I will sign off as it is time to head over to the dock to catch the dingy to go out to the Queen Mabel which will be my home for the next week or so.  Hopefully, I will have many interesting stories to tell and images to share when we return on or about August 2nd.

Until then, thanks so much for following along.
