Galapagos Islands Vacation !

In August we were able to travel to the Galapagos Islands for a once in a lifetime adventure. We traveled with Natural Habitat Adventures on their Eastern itinerary on board the Nemo III catamaran luxury sailboat. Each day we traveled to a differnt Galapagos island where we hiked, snorkled and kayaked amongst the incredible wildlife where we learned about the ecosystem and animals from our incredible guides. Along the way we made new friends and enjoyed the spending time with them, the guides and the crew of the Nemo III.

Day 0 - Quito, Ecuador

We arrived in Ecuador's captial city of Quito by night and met our tour companions the next morning and spent the day sightseeing in the city of 2 million people. This included visiting the Virgin of El Panecillo (also known as the Virgin of Quito) monument on top of the hill El Panceillo, visiting one of the famed Ecuadorian gourmet chocalate makers, spending time in the old town, touring the La Iglesia de la Compañía de Jesús church and enjoying a wonderful lunch that was a modern take on traditonal Ecuadorian quisine.
