Photo Update

Stages of a developing Galapagos turtle from inside the egg up to 3 months.
Derek and I in a turtle shell. We know this one died of natural causes because it was complete. There were some missing the bottom part meaning they were killed to be eaten. The lady who had them told me that her father, a 93 year old local from Santa Cruz, used to eat them before it became illegal.

Rock formations made within the Love Tunnels in Santa Cruz. The tunnels are part of a series of lava tubes created during the formation of the island. The lady who owned the land told us that her father first discovered the caverns in 1948 when a cow that belonged to him fell through.
A cool heart braid that Yulika´s aunt made me!
Derek going up the spiral staircase inside the lighthouse at the top of Las Peñas.

Derek standing next to a portion of the Muro de las Lagrimas on Isabella. Think of how heavy these rocks were that they caused so many deaths.
