Galapagos-bound?

I spoke to Suzi via Skype last night. David has been feeling a bit under the weather, but assuming that he is sufficiently recovered, they are planning to depart Ecuador, heading due west for the Galapagos, around noon today. The trip should last approximately four days (depending on wind conditions), and it will probably take them a couple of days to settle in on Isla Isabella and find an internet cafe, so don't worry if you don't hear anything for a week or so. Suzi promised to contact me when they arrived to let us know that they made it safely; I will post that information as soon as I receive it. They plan to explore the Galapagos for roughly three weeks before departing for the South Pacific, hopefully in the company of another boat. Please visualize Sidewinder at sea, her sails full! Check out the Galapagos on GoogleEarth: looks fabulous. I'm a tinch jealous: you?
