Galápagos islands Nov 8-13

Our fellow travellers from Angelique and our Guide Leonidas!

Our Boat

From Genovesa island


From Bartalomé. We hiked up to a very beautiful viewing point! It was pretty amazing


We went on a boat tour around Bartalomé



A beautiful sunset from our boat


Our very nice guide, who new all about turtles...



We tried to be in a Giant Turtle which was very funny and I´m very happy that I´m not a giant turtle! It´s hard work to carry yourself around like that...






We were standing next to the biggest turtle - the one on the left! It is 180 years old and is "young"

Me and Katrine, my fellow traveller...


We could get so close to the sea lions - it was amazing











Marine Iguanas...




I don´t remember it´s name, but they lay eggs in a circle and it looked pretty funny


Sea gulls - they mate for life and are very sweet towards each other
A frigit (I can´t spell it - when it´s young and still not flying)

The Blue Footed Boobie - very famous in Galápagos

The Red Footed Boobie...

The Pinguin...

Mi familia y mi casa

Mi "mum" Gladys and me in her small living room
