THE GALAPAGOS ISLANDS: A SPIRITUAL JOURNEY – Chapter 2 (Day 2, Saturday)

After a night voyage, we awoke on the northwest coast of Isabela at Vicente Roca where we saw mola mola, snorkeled, and observed unique Galapagos wildlife below and above the sea.  Then we went to Fernandina for a trip highlight for me.

 

You’ll find the complete album from Day 2 here.

Where do the iguanas end and the lava rocks begin?
