Isla Isabella - Baby tortoise, flamingos


Baby giant tortoise ontop of an egg at the breeding center in Isabella. Males can be differentiated from females only after about 5 years, when their tail becomes thicker and longer.


Behind our room at "Bar do Beto" we had a view of the pink flamingos in one of the many lagoons in Isabella.


Isabella is a fantastic island. Funny thing, most Galapagos cruise boats don´t stop here; those people who do visit come on a 2 night "tour" and wish they had stayed longer. Scott, Kym, and I stayed for 5 nights and even that was barely enough.
