Hammock Day

Today is our last day on the islands and by popular demand we’ve decided to do a whole lot of nothing. The morning is spent relaxing in the hammocks, enjoying a cool breeze with a glass of Yogi and a Kindle.

We do manage to pull ourselves away for lunch at Lo & Lo’s, where the purportedly serve the best ceviche on the island. The food is as advertised, all chased down with a pitcher of frozen lemonade (which, as opposed to the apple soda, contains actual fruit).

Eating burns a lot of energy, so to be safe, we return immediately to our hammocks. There the afternoon slowly passes us by, until finally it is time to pack up 🙁

For our farewell dinner, we end up at a spot near the dive shop that has been busy pretty much every time we’ve walked by. Travelin’ Gran signs up for the “Eat your Weight in Fajitas” challenge, but sadly comes up just a little short and doesn’t get the t-shirt. Magnificent effort though.

Since we’ll be leaving for the airport pretty early in the morning, that’s pretty much a wrap. It has been an incredible 8 days and we have more than our fair share of memories to last a lifetime. The boys have a ton of things to tell their friends about (well, at least to the extent teenage boys share anything), and we’ve shown Travelin’ Gran that if she can get through one of our vacations, going anywhere else should be a piece of cake.

If a picture is worth a thousand words, here’s one that sums up the Galapagos nicely.
