We were picked up early from out hotel in Quito and headed to the airport. We flew from Quito to San Cristobal Island where we were to meet our boat. It was hot, humid and breezy, as we exited the airplane. Once we were transported to the harbor we were greeted with seals and a dinghy ride to the boat. On the way, there was a very nice left peeling off the point.
After lunch we gathered our things for our first adventure. We were motored over to Wizard Island. We walked the beaches and became acclimated to our first views of the wild life and pristine surroundings. After a long walk up and back down the coast, I went for a dip in the ocean. It was warm clear and perfect. There was a sand bottom and we had blue-footed boobies diving all around us. It was back to the boat for an all time sunset and dinner. What a first day!
