Continued- apparently no more space for photos on part 1
Giant Tortioses- We saw in the Charles Dawin Research Centre on Santa Cruz island. The tortoises are bred here and released back to the wild, microchipped when they are 5 years old. It was great to see the size of the tortoises as some had shells well over a meter long.
Turtles
White tipped reef sharks
Various rays
So many fish
We only visited the Southern islands on our cruise but I was pleased how much we did see. I think there will be a few returnees in years to come for further exploration! We flew back to Quito for one night before heading further South to Banos with one extra person on board. Rogan has joined us a crew as sadly Pete has to leave us in Lima, Peru to prepare and crew another upcoming trip. Rogan has driven for Odyssey many times before and seems like a nice guy so I'm sure we will still be in safe hands with him and Kirsten for the final sector of the trip back to Buenos Aires.
