the Galapagos Islands trip

In December 2002 we went to the Galapagos Islands, where Charles Darwin's Evolution Theory was born. It was a wonderful experience! You just have to go there sometime! There are sea lions, iguanas, pelicans many other creatures everywhere and the beaches are beautiful too!
We travelled in a small boat called Queen Mabel: it really was nice and cosy! The first night was horrible!!! Some people got really sea sick... =) The crew was very kind and we've had a lot of laughs with them and the other passengers. And Antonio, the chef, is the best cook ever!!!!!!!

I'll never forget this!!!!
