After a night in Quito our next stop was the Galapagos islands. For the next ten days we would be joined by the whole Hundman family, Kyle Hundman´s friend, Sarah and Jenny´s Mom, so we are now traveling as a group of nine. (Minus the fact that a few of the Hundmans missed their flight due to weather, spent a night in Miami and then Guayaquil before speed boating to catch up to our cruise). So for our 5 days in the Galapagos we all stayed on the Santa Cruz boat...

So after a lot of travel to leave chupaca (a cab, then an 8 hour bus ride, then another cab, layover in the airport for hours, flight to Quito, then a nigth in Quito in a hostel and another very interesting local bus in the morning from Quito to the jungle) In the airport we discovered the very popular trend to saran wrap your suitcase with lime green saran wrap, everyone was doing it, it was sooo weird! But we made it to the jungle and made it out of the jungle...
