In May 2012 I visited the Galapagos Islands with a a group of five friends. We spent a little time in Quito Ecuador and then 10 days in the Galapagos Islands. While in Quito we visited a traditional market and also went to a raptor rehab center the Condor Park. In the Galapagos Islands we did a live aboard on the M/Y Eric visiting a different island each day. Each island is unique and offers different wildlife and scenery to experience. The Galapagos islands are amazing. The wildlife are so approachable that we needed to be careful that we didn't step on any of the birds or iguana. We didn't have to worry about the sea lions because they would bark at us to let us know that we had invaded their space. I hope my images give you a feel for true wonders of this magical place.
