Galapagos

Today we said good-bye to our guide Wilson who has been with us since our first day in the Galapagos.  Jose will help us get back to the mainlandtomorrow morning where we have two nights in the Capitol city of Quito.  We visited another lava tunnel today and saw tortoises in the wild. Students got a chance to try on a tortoise shell too!  Our afternoon shopping in Santa Cruz gave us a BIG surprise as we ran into the famous Mr. Anderson from Montana with his students.  Mr. Anderson is famous for his bio videos on You Tube that many of the students use to study biology.  Our students met his students and exchanged adventures.  They were coming from the mainland and just starting their tour of the islands so CHC students gave them some previews of the critters they will encounter.  We are all excited to get pizza tonight since we are a bit tired of fish and chicken.
