Santa Cruz and back to EcuadorHeading back to Ecuador meant that we had to be up at 6 am but first we went looking for pacific green sea turtles at Black Turtle Cove. It was such a magical place and so unbelievably tranquil. The turtles sleep in the red mangroves at night and leave in the morning so we got to see lots of turtles. They are so beautiful. We also got to see some Rays and blue Boobies! After returning to the boat we had to finish packing. The flight left at 10.45 back to Ecuador. The flight took 3 and a half hour as had to stop on the way before returning the Hilton. Even though I was no longer on a boat I was still rocking for another 2 days which was very bizarre. Our last night was quite relaxed, after a drink at the bar we went for a buffet dinner.
The Last Day
Banks in Equador seem to be difficult to extract money out. Instead of going to the 0'0'' point on the equator we wandered all around the markets and down little streets to the banking district where we had coffee at a lovely cafe in the sun before returning to the hotel and then leaving for the airport.The trip truly was magical and I would love to go back some time in the future preferably when I have a diving certificate, as although the birds are beautiful, the marine life is so diverse that not getting to see it all again would be a shame!
