My wife and I just returned from a trip to The Galapagos Islands - of Charles Darwin fame - which lay about 625 miles off the coast of Ecuador. These islands support one of the most unique assemblages of flora and fauna on earth. This marine iguana, the only species of its kind in the world, is just one example.
Following our stint on this magnificent archipelago, we headed to Peru to visit the home of the ancient Inca Empire with Machu Picchu being the crown jewel.
This incredible cultural relic was but a small part of the extensive Inca Empire but it remains a fantastic example of a once advanced civilization. Stay tuned for a series of blogs - after Christmas - on our thoughts and experiences on our visit to these natural and cultural worlds.
Merry Christmas! An iguana picture is quite a start to a Christmas morning. I'm looking forward to your full series of reports. Hope your family is all together for the holidays. All the best.
