Dear Emily
Glad you are finally at Galapagos.
Make sure you have your picture taken with the ducks with the blue feet, and send me the picture. I hope you all have some smooth water for awhile.
Miss you

Congratulations on your arrival. We're enviously following your progress on the blog and the position report. Saw you listed in Latitude38 as part of the "Puddle Jumpers" group! We hope to follow in your wake one of these days so keep good notes!
