    Checked into Floreana yesterday. We were met immediately upon arrival by a water taxi with the Port Captain, Agriculture and Environmental officers. No Immigration on the island. They inspected the vessel, reviewed the paperwork we had from our agent and time in San Cristobal.

    They did require a checkout in which they stamped our zarpe from San Cristobal to Issabella, where we are heading tomorrow. Contrary to the profile here, there is wifi available. An open unlocked site and a locked site that for which they freely provided the password. It’s the best internet we’ve seen in the Galapagos and I’m sending this to you from their free wifi right now.
