When travelers return from visiting the Galapagos
Islands, their eyes sparkle with wonder as
they tell marvelous tales. You may think their
stories are pure fabrication: birds that no
longer fly, tortoises weighing up to 300 kilos,
penguins from the Antarctic living right on
the equator, and blue-footed boobies doing
sophisticated mating dances. But you would
be wrong. The Galapagos Islands are just as
amazing as everyone says
there is nothing
in the world quite like them!
