Where we’ve been for eight days …

 

Our last excursion to a mangrove area … Black Turtle Cove

 

Blue-footed booby … their feet really are impossibly, ridiculously blue.

Leaving the Golondrina for the last time …

 

The wind turbines of Baltra airport.

Sad to be leaving. Happy to have come. Grateful, grateful.

A final wildlife encounter …

T-shirt wisdom at the airport shop …

Guayaquil airport … making space for life in the city.
