Many people have asked me about what animals we saw. The fauna of the Galapagos are amazing, they are very tame, and very accessible to see. We saw sea lions (begging for fish), red/orange Sally Lightfoot crabs, land finches (very dull birds), land iguanas, swimming marine iguanas (really bizarre), lots of pelicans, several kinds of land tortoises (all huge- they can live up to 200 years), and blue-footed boobies (so named because the Spanish thought they looked like clowns, or "bobos"). It was all quite amazing.
