Plus when you are on a boat then you are on their schedule and traveling with a group. I think we would rather try do do as much as we can on our own and hike a guide for a day or two for the stuff that we can't do on our own, even though that in itself will be expensive but it will still work out to be cheaper than a boat cruise.Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18136052866820208847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7171307653508307040.post-68827770534192440512019-09-20T00:38:55.233-04:002019-09-20T00:38:55.233-04:00Makes sense that you would visit the Galapagos Isl...Makes sense that you would visit the Galapagos Islands!

His family immigrated from germany and lived in a cave for awhile. I think it was floreana. His mother wrote a great book about it.i havent done any research but it sure seems like a cruise would be the easiest. I'll be interested to read how your planning goes. I think rolfs son still operates cruises there.Kay Pihlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03612469310917094617noreply@blogger.com
