We sailed around this welded-tuff outcropping on our first day aboard the Flamingo I. There were lots of sea birds flying around it and a great view of the sunset through a crevice.

A brackish lake on Isabela Island.

A volcano on Isabela seen from the shoreline on Fernandina. You can see all of our traveling companions on the Flamingo I taking in different aspects of the experience.
One evening we had a great view of the "green flash". The green flash can be seen when the sun sets (or rises) on a completely flat horizon and the air is very clear. The green image of the sun sets later than the other colors, so as you watch the sun set, you notice that the last little bit of it has an unmistakable green tinge.

One of the people on our cruise called this "God light" shining on our boat. Darwinists know this phenomenon by the Satanic name of "crepuscular rays". Darwinists don't realize how much more comforting sense everything makes if you imagine it being planned out by a bilious cosmic individual with opinions very much like your own, sitting on a giant Architectural Review Board Of One In The Sky, rather than as the universe itself.

A lava tube in Santa Cruz island. It's actually possible to walk a kilometer through this tube and come out the other end but about 200 meters in you get to a place where you would have to get very muddy and crawl on your belly and bang up your camera and stuff. But the electric lights have been strung through so there must be something there. Viet Cong probably.
