National Geographic Endeavor

This was our home away from home for seven days in the Galapagos Islands. The Endeavor is an expedition-type, research ship which has plied the waters from the Arctic to the Antarctic. At 295 feet long, with accommodations for 96 guests, she was the base of operations from which the Zodiacs (or pangas - tough, inflatable boats with outboard motors) zipped us back and forth to the islands for hiking or to snorkeling sites. The crew was genial and experienced, the food excellent, and being rocked to sleep at night by the ocean swells was a charming bonus! Texture by Spektoral Addendum.
