The
sandy streets of Isla Isabella don’t compensate for the fact that it is very
sleepy with nothing going on. We walk to the tortoise reserve and that’s fine but
not terribly inspiring. We decide to leave and get back to Santa Cruz island
and so catch the 3.00pm boat for the two hour journey back.
Later
that day we are told of a day boat full of tourists that went to the lava
tunnels area to snorkel. A rouge wave came in and took the boat to its crest
and then dropped it into the following trough. One broken arm and several
people with severe muscle and ligament pulls. No MRIs on the islands and so
several unhappy tourists were waiting to get off the Galapagos and back to good
medical care.
We
arrive back at Isabel’s and she’s happy to see us and gives us some Guanabana
juice, it’s very good.
