Final morning on the Galapagos

Posted by

After a couple of weeks around the Galapagos Islands this is our final morning on the islands – we have to fly out in the afternoon and go back to the mainland. It is a bit sad to leave this unique ecosystem behind.

Fortunately we have time to go down and have a look around the harbor area in the morning. As every other day there are a lot of sea lions hanging around on the beaches near the harbor. It is a pleasure to go and have a look at the cute animals.

Down in the harbor there are a lot of pelicans diving into the waters trying to catch their breakfast. I guess we were not the only ones hungry this morning the pelicans need to go and eat as well.

We have to go to the airport and check in – we go pretty early and manage to check in the bags. But there is nothing to do at the airport and we don’t have to board the plane. The airport is only a short walk from the town so we walk back to the city to relax before we go back to the airport.

It is good to go and have a last look at a blue footed booby and a marine iguana and a Darwin finch. It has been a good time to see the animals but everything comes to a close and it is about time to walk back to the airport and board the flight.
