Visit to Tena

Laura tired after a long day in the Amazon heat.

Kiara like a monkey all over the place as usual. Here we are at a host family for a visit.

There is always something to collect when your name is Lucas.

Lucas found a hammock and decided to hide/sleep.

Cooling of our feet outside Tena.

Lucas found a friend swinging around in the trees looking for something to eat.

Concha Perla visit


Mauricio snorkeling at Concha Perla today with the last group for the summer.

A baby Sealion waiting for his mom to get back from feeding out on the ocean.

The baby Sealion swiming with Rachel, one of the group leaders, and one of the boys in the group.

Some of the kids in the group jumped into the water again to be close to the baby Sealion.

Animal day on Isabela Island, Galapagos


At a visit to a lagoon outside Puerto Villamil on Isabela Island we found 19 Flamingos walking around getting ready for the breeding season.

More Falmingos in the same laggon

A friendly Giant Tortoise at the National Park breeding center

Some Flamingos got a bit scared by a car passing by and started to fly around for a while.

Ducks, probably Galapagos Ducks, at the lagoon.

On a hike through the Wetlands outside the village I found this Sea Iguana that had his private Island in one of the lagoons.
