Galapagos: Yacht Darwin Day 4-6

Day 4: Floreana Island

 Flying flamingos. 

 The majority of our group. 

Since the 18th century people have been putting their mail into a barrel on Floreana. They would put in mail that needed to be sent, and take any mail that was addressed to where they were going. Today the same system is in place, but with postcards of visiting tourists.

Putting in my postcards. Hopefully they will make it to their destination!
