Galapagos!

Off to the Galapagos today, which celebrated its 50th anniversary of the founding of the Charles Darwin Foundation and designation as a national park and protected area. For some more info, you can look here.

I´m hoping to see giant tortoises, some penguins, flamingos, sea lions, boobies (the bird!) and sharks! Apparently the animals are so tame and unafraid of humans you can get really really close!

  2. Hug a penguin? How about EAT a penguin? Always wondered what they taste like. They're slow and flightless, should be easy to catch.

    Any crazy/awesome food yet? Enough with the nature stuff. What is the food like?!?

  3. Do you ever not think about eating, Adam...? :P

    No eating penguins! They are so cute. But wiley - they´re fast underwater. I finally saw one the other day, swimming underwater, while snorkelling. It was amazing.
