If you're like me, you may be forced to work in a mundane office job where the only entertainment is the sarcastic comments made by your jaded colleague who spends all week waiting for the weekend so he can get absolutely wasted gps airline flight tracker for two full days and spend five days reminiscing and waiting to do it all again. Hilarious? Absolutely. Entertaining? Totally. Fulfilling? yeah........less so.
So, I tend to spend my time at work daydreaming about exotic travel destinations that I hope to one day get to (when I'm not making pretty powerpoint gps airline flight tracker slides or snarkily explaining totally obvious concepts to people with the IQ of fish). Luckily for me, one place that I have been DYING to go to I am actually heading to at the end of the year - the Galapagos Islands!!!
I'm pretty sure this place is at or near the top of everyone's lists, considering the second I bring it up, there is generally squealing and shouts of "That's so cool!!!!!". I mean, apart from the incredible unspoiled natural beauty of the islands (which I could go on and on and on and on about given the fact that I am a huge nerd - yes I will be spending a whole day dressed as Charles Darwin and read my copy of On the Origin of Species), this is where Tortuga Island is....TORTUGA ISLAND. Yep.
