where are we....?

As the plane began its decent, we slowly began to see the sharp jagged rock islands surrouned by an endless blue. The plane touched ground and we entered a new world. Flat, organge, brown, and rocky. There were no green lush mountains, tropical flowers, or animals to greet us.

For an hour on the bus, i gazed out the window. A forest of white trees with no leaves slowly changed into flat prarie lands with yellow roses. The roses slowly disapeared and lush green rainforest surrounded us as it began to drizzle and a man got up to close the windows. Within a matter of minutes, the rain stopped and large, widley spaced trees, which reminded me of an Oak, came into view. Then the fields came again, and the cows came into view, and wait, whats that? Next the that cow? A gaint tortoise.

Welcome to the Galapagos Islands.
