]]> Comment on Galapagos Adventure Highlights by Corrina http://www.lillicloud.com/blog/2006/06/20/galapagos-adventure-highlights/#comment-60 Sat, 15 Jul 2006 17:19:01 +0000 http://www.lillicloud.com/blog/2006/06/20/galapagos-adventure-highlights/#comment-60 I enjoyed your pics and your comments very much! It makes me that much more excited for my own journey to the Galapagos coming ever so quickly in just 2 weeks. Do you have any suggestions for my journey, things not to take or thing to make sure I have etc.? Thank you Corrina <strong>A good pair of shoes is at the top of the list. There were occasions on which rocks were slippery, or the path was rocky and I was so happy to have good shoes. I wore New Balance walker/hikers, but they have good soles and are very comfortable. The hiking in the islands is not strenuous in terms of distance or elevation (except once). In fact, it is barely hiking, more of a nature walk, really, but good shoes can make a good trip. There were a few wet landings in which Teva or similar sturdy sandals can also come in handy. Lots of film or memory for your camera. I showed up with only a 256 memory card and I was deleting constantly. I would check to see if your boat will have wet suits. I really don’t think it is feasible to snorkel for any period of time in that water without a wet suit. It’s a hassle to bring one along, but you’ll be glad you did if your boat does not have them. Seasickness medicine – be prepared just in case, although I think some of the boats carry their own. Lots of strong sunscreen, sunglasses and a hat (although I’m sure you’ve already thought of this). </strong> I enjoyed your pics and your comments very much!

Perhaps the favored sandy browns snd azure blues are an unconscious attempt to blend into the landscape. It appears that the “girls who go their own way” have a dress code.
