Armchair Travel: Highlights of the Galapagos Islands

Larkspur Library presents Armchair Travel: Highlights of the Galapagos Islands. Visitors regularly say that one of the most interesting things about visiting Galapagos is the unique natural habitat, which allows travelers to come face-to-face with wildlife that has never developed a fear of humans. Only in Galapagos do visitors have the chance to snorkel with playful sea lions, walk alongside grazing giant tortoises, approach birds like blue-footed boobies and marvel at penguins at the equator - all in one vacation. Adventure travel expert Kathleen Cook-Hunter will present important considerations for travelers seeking the best possible experience of the Galapagos. Professor Paul Hunter will also share stories of Darwin’s explorations of the Galapagos, as well as recommending delightful books to read upon the topic.
