Today we are touring the northern part of Isabella Island which we are told will be remote, wild and even forbidding. The main feature is a line of volcanoes. Volcan Darwin was named to honor Charles Darwin, the Galapagos’ most famous visitor. The Equator runs through the caldera of Volcan Wolf which is named after the Ecuadorian geologist. Sailing around Volcan Ecuador, we will see that half of the volcano has slipped into the ocean. In the afternoon we will arrive at Fernandina Island and venture off the vessel. Here we will see a wide variety of animals such as marine and land iguanas, tortoises, hawks, sea lions and a great variety of sea birds, such as the flightless cormorants.
Pam was teaching at Road 2 CA. I didn't realize she was there until I saw this quilt labeled "Faculty".

Thursday, February 5th - Today we will arrive at the Baltra airport at the GALAPAGOS ISLANDS and board the 100 passenger Galapagos Legend cruise ship. We will sail to the beautiful BARTOLOME ISLAND, and see unique volcanic features: lava flows, cinder cones and lava tubes. We’ll make our way to the shoreline where we will see an unusual sight - the only tropical penguin on Earth. There will be time for us to “take the plunge” and enjoy the Galapagos Marine Reserve as we swim with the penguins and colorful fish.
Congratulations Mary Kay!
Thank you to everyone who posted pet pictures in Show & Tell. We found ourselves grinning constantly as we ran our cursors over each one. It's amazing what friends these pets become and we are thrilled by the number of pets that were rescued. Here are our top two winners. They will receive a special Quilting Goodie Bag.
If you haven't had a chance to view these pictures, go to Show and Tell. For those who have Show & Tell set to BOM, you will have to click on "Show All" to get back to the other Show & Tell entries. We will make these pictures invisible at the end of the week and get back to quilting. So check them out right away.
