Leave Only Footprints

"Take only pictures, leave only footprints". 

Footprints in the sand.

The Galapagos Islands treated me wonderfully. I made lifelong friends who I never would have met otherwise. I was around animals all day long, observing and photographing them. I learned so much about animals, ecotourism, conservation, and human impact. I left with amazing friendships, amazing photographs, and amazing knowledge. I'm so thankful I had the opportunity to return here.

We rose early, making our way to the Guayaquil airport. We had a little last minute shopping time, and I left with one last bag of plantain chips. As we boarded the plane for Miami, the exhaustion hit me. I fell asleep and the next thing I knew, I was in Miami. The flight from Mmiami to Los Angeles passed by slower. I finished my video presentation at least! After hours of traveling, we were finally back home. As much as I enjoyed the trip (minus the part where many people went out at night in town), it always feels good to be home.

Now, it's time to get some Mexican food. . . !!!
