It is always good to come back to Fernandina Island, a place where reality is confused with fantasy. As we walked along the lava flows, we found creatures that are as rare as friendship and as beautiful as love.
It is difficult not to be distracted by the incredible amount of life that the island has, and for the spectacular volcanic scenery that creates poetry in the minds of one and all.
Today we were walking under an immaculate sky, surrounded by the volcanoes that go straight up and are so tall that they make you feel like it is a privilege to be among them, and suddenly you realize that it is not how big they are, but how small they make you feel.
