Things I Saw in the Galapagos
Aw-w-w-w-w...
Sea lions are everywhere!
We frequently had to step over them.
For some reason, I'm craving turtle soup. Okay, that wasn't nice. The Galapagos tortoises were almost wiped out by sailors, who took them for fresh meat. A G.T. can live for a year with no water and no food, a pretty good deal in the days of no refrigeration.
Blue-footed booby with chick and egg.A face only a mother could love -- marine iguanas. Fur seals. Note how the face looks more like a bear than a dog. They are also smaller and lighter in color than a sea lion. I'll post some more pictures later. Gotta get some work done now.

I am older than dirt, but I still feel pretty young & some call me the Energizer Bunny. I share a house with the Professor & 3 cats. Between us we have 5 grown children, all of whom are productive members of society (!), and 10 grandchildren. I have a job I love, a little money for the 1st time in my life, and so many more things I want to do than I will ever have time for.
