Need to sail
Just a few more hours and we weigh the anchor. It is done here. The tension of a new harbor takes away a lot of your energy. The last crewmembers had their day off yesterday and the other members are saturated with all the beautiful flora and fauna of the Islands. The maintenance seemed to go very viscous today, so it is really time to leave the Galapagos. An old but applicable expression is: “Men and ships rot in port”.
Our first mate Moritz is also eager to sail again, inspired by a wall painting on a school in Santa Cruz. Between the characteristic Galapagos scenes shines something where he immediately fell for, even with the right three colors!
