GALAPAGOS - Seeing the Galapagos Islands have been high on my list for decades.

 All the stars were aligned so this was the year to go. I talked some Sacramento friends to accompany me - Mike Broderick, Barbara Greenwood, Tom Graham and Lisa Foster.

We booked the tour with Galapagos Travel who came highly recommended by several sources as the company of choice if one wanted a comprehensive tour of the islands. We were not disappointed.

 The tour was beyond great! We booked an 11 day tour of the islands followed by a 2 day extension to Bella Vista, an ecolodge in the high Andes Mountains.
