Relax day. Tortuga Bay. 21st May 2017


Sunday 21st May 2017

Tortuga Bay

First day when we don’t have to get up early and do anything.  Bliss! Leisurely breakfast and spent the morning using their decent wifi updating about 2x weeks of blog. Later found that cost them $480USD per month for internet (Max 512 KBPS/Min 256 KBPS).

Walked through town, revisiting the fish stall (closed) which still had three sealion asleep underneath in hopeful anticipation.  Marine Iguana were littering the pavement for some unknown reason. Quick lunch.

Walked to Tortuga Bay which was about 2.5km away with a loooong path running to the beach. It was worth the effort though – a massive talcum-powder soft sandy beach with turquoise sea and crashing surf. Some brave souls were in the water, against the wishes of the red flag flying, so I just paddled. Iain took loads of pictures. Met up with the Belgian brothers again for a quick chat – they had already walked up a volcano since the live-aboard.

Back to Puerto Ayora for gin/tonic happy hour. Waited for Diane and Terry while Iain returned to pack. Quick catch up then big adios – then there were Two.

Packing for return trip. Groan.
