    Michael , I really feel with you.
    What a darn place these islands .... what do you call them ?? Galapagos ??? Ah , it's a real ordeal .... I can understand you. Damp tropical ... windy .... heath land . Though I would with much pleasure take your place and protect you of all these terrible experience .....

    I'm off to the Galapagos...

    Have a safe journey !
    I have a small shopping list.
    Can you please help me to have a turtle shell (it's a must in a modern house) , a Galapagos lizard skin (,-) watch straps isn't it ??) and some other trophies ? Elephant tusks if available would do. Anything , as long as I can say it comes from Galapagos. I want to decorate my summer house and impress visitors. There in Galapagos must be still planty of this stuff .That's what my friends poachers tell me. Looking forward to your postcard.

    Big news on the Galapagos...

    I had a look to enciclopediae and this humanoid is defined as Homo Michaelis Pacismundi (Michael Friedberg for us commoners). You can see/find an exponent of the species quite frequently on the pages of this forum. And it is not a Chupacabra ....it's a much more docile species ... take my word.

    I wish you a lot of fun and safe travels!

    Maybe you run into a team that is traveling the same route as Darwin did. More info can be found (Dutch site) in the link below.
