Galapagos - Bartholomew

Salamander

A most amazing island with incredible lava flow patterns, very reminiscent of Lanzarote. (But no photo!)
Murray paddled with about 15 small white tipped reef sharks, which felt surreal as they swam around him in shallow water, appearing out of the gloom of the stirred up sand and disappearing again.
 
We picked this trip because we most wanted to snorkel with penguins which are extremely nippy underwater.
 
 
 
Baby grown up and moulting.
 
 
Two bickering penguins - the male tried to mount the female, but was completely unsuccessful.
 
 
 
The obligatory fish
