The Leaf in Galapagos, My Series #1
Hi from my trip to Galapagos 2015!!
As you know Galapagos Islands are the best islands you can ever be as much as close to nature. Ecuador has been my favourite country for so long but when i was in Ecuador, i was so concerned about going Galapagos because as you know their currency is us dollar which makes everything pretty expensive. Islands are so far away from the land which makes me more excited to go but just financial situation was making me thing 'SHOULD I SELL JUST MY KIDNEY TO GO THOSE PERFECT CREATURES'
In the end i decided to cut my holiday short just to make Galapagos. Believe me i still have my kidney. For now.
Firstly i flew to Santa Cruz Island from Guayaquil. It was very exciting trip. By the way you have to pay 100 dollars while going in to islands if i remember correct!
I had no idea about where i'd even stay so firstly it was time to search about some hostels and believe me you can find lots of budget ones. My first day was around Santa cruz where you can find Charles Darwin Research Station and more. Charles Darwin Station has tortoise breeding center here where young tortoises prepared to be introduced to their natural habitat.
I think they're having some kinda party!
And of course you must see my water bottle which is the most you ever wonder about i'm sure!
ANDDD HERE WE GO TO SAN CRISTOBAL ISLAND where i woke up at 6am to catch the boat!
IMPORTANT WARNING WHOEVER WANTS TO GO TO GALAPAGOS ISLANDS!!!!!!!
You need SEASICKNESS PILLS like a lot! And i didn't know i could have a sea sickness until on this road from Santa Cruz to San Cristobal where i was about to faint for 2.5 hours on the ocean with those speed boats.I was praying all the way for drowning in the ocean just not to live for one more second in that boat. Anyway the road was ended and i was laying on the ground for like 30 minutes then i realized i had to move on some time.
San Cristobal is perfect island for especially sea lions and iguanas and of course giant tortoises!
As you see the picture above sea lions are kinda my soulmates. Laying and sleeping there like that and talking like they're burping constantly.
Anddddd here you go TORTUGA BAY! Me while i'm trying to walk like in the movies under the hot sun!
By the way as a note everything was pretty expensive as food but beers were 4 dollars back in time!
Anddddd Here you go Isabela Island!
Isabela Islands have everything! Even penguins. Yes real Penguins. I saw it but unfortunately while snorkelling so don't have a proof from it but probably i'll add from google later!
Not just the penguins they have flamingos too!
Isabela has sea iguanas while Santa Cruz has mostly land iguanas which one of the searches of Charles Darwin.
The fact that this is the very brief of Galapagos. There are like so many stories and animals and places to see there!. Maybe in my next episode of remembering the past, i'll write about them as much as i remember.
Awesome! Seems like you had lots of fun. Beautiful pictures and great post too. Thanks for sharing this. :)
