I met with Barbara in the morning to organize our trip over to San christobal where we were going to be camping for a Couple of days. The boat over there didn't leave till two so we had a bit of time to kill, we went back over to the beach I went to yesterday as well as going back to the cliff jump where I built up the courage to jump from one of the higher rock platforms.
Getting the boat to San christobal was very unorganized and we were thrown about a bunch I boats until finally they had us sorted out; in total we went to about 3 boats having to shuffle our belongings amongst the people squeezed in the small areas amongst the boats.
Arriving in the main town of Puerto Baquerizo Moreno we found a place to sleep for the night, not the cheapest place but it was nice enough with a view of the ocean and the festival that was held in the evening that hosted a whole bunch of terrible performers.
48 hour notice is needed for camping anywhere on anyone of the Galapagos islands and as such we made our way to the park office where we needed to get the permission, we arrived there at 5 minutes past 5 on a Friday meaning we couldnt get the proper documents. With disappointment expressed on our faces we sweet talked another officer who gave us written permission to camp.
We really didn't get up to much for the rest of the day other than chill in bed drinking a few beers and attempted to watch Pulp Fiction on my laptop..IMG_2357-1024
