We spent the day exploring San Cristobal - we went to the Interpretation Center which gives the history of the Galapagos Islands - it's a pretty fascinating history. Then we walked among the paths and saw the amazing volcanic rocks, cactus, birds....to the beach with the marine iguanas, red and black crabs everywhere, and of course sea lions. The sea lions can be really cute but they are stinky and they like to climb on the boats. We had 2 last night that climbed on several times - we'd go out and chase them off and they would come back. Luckily they didn't climb into our cockpit because they can make a heck of a mess if they do.
Tomorrow is a full day of snorkeling so hopefully we will get to see a variety of fish/sharks.......
We're not having great internet connections so I can't upload more pictures as of yet. Apparently even the internet cafes don't have great internet connections. Maybe Puerto Ayora will be better but we won't be there for over a week.
