Woke up quite early, Steve and me went to the island with all the sea lions, iguanas and penguins to take some pictures.
Once back on the boat we dismantled the dinghy and stashed all the various parts away, before setting out.
As much as I’ve enjoyed the Galapagos and all its strange beautiful landscapes and animals, I feel its definitely time to leave.
During my afternoon shift I saw 2 whales about 50 feet away from the boat, some dolphins and a couple of jumping manta rays.
No fish on our lines, but we have seen lots of fish related activity. I’m sure we’re going too slow for our lures to be working properly.
Wind not exactly in the best direction, but roughly in the right way for us to make some progress. Hopefully once we clear the island it will be more consistent.
Its going to take a couple of days to get back into the shift routine, even tho it’s changed slightly.
That’s it for day 1, unless we catch some fish I think my blog entries are going to be rather short.
