Santa Cruz Island, July 27th 2019

Took an early morning flight to the Galapagos Islands, landing on Baltra Island, and taking a short ferry ride to Santa Cruz Island. Our guide Erica took us to a private Tortoise preserve before we checked into Hotel Mainao in Puerta Ayora. After lunch, we took a walk with Erica to see the Charles Darwin Research Station.
