Blame it on the Booby

by Sandra Barrow

Close encounters with weird and wonderful wildlife (and some even weirder humans) on our once-in-a-lifetime adventure to the Galapagos Islands and beyond!

From our home base, a hundred miles north of London, we set off to explore the Galapagos Islands, Ecuador, The Grand Canyon and San Francisco.

Things didn't always go to plan.

​​​​​​​ During our trip we...
 ☼ Locked ourselves out of our rented accommodation in Galapagos
 ☼ Missed the pick-up for our big trip to the booby island
 ☼ Braved 'The Vomit Run'
 ☼ Got altitude sickness halfway up a volcano in the Andes
 ☼ Walked down through 270 million years of history in the Grand Canyon
 ☼ Ended our trip in solitary confinement in Alcatraz

Destinations we visited…
 ✈ Miami Beach - Florida
 ✈ Guayaquil - Ecuador
 ✈ Galapagos = Santa Cruz + Isabela + North Seymour + Tintoreras islands
 ✈ Quito - Andes Mountains - Ecuador
 ✈ Grand Canyon National Park - Arizona
 ✈ Sedona - Arizona
 ✈ San Francisco / Sausalito / Alcatraz Island - California

​​​​​​​ Includes sketch maps and photos, as well as blood, sweat and tears!
