Afternoon Day 3, Post Office, Floreana Island

Post Office, Floreana

This afternoon we stopped at Post Office. Many years ago
someone started this tradition. People would leave messages and
someone else passing through from that place would pick it up
and deliver it.

Today people leave post cards and other tourists to pick them up.
The rule is they are supposed to be hand delivered. I forgot to take
one and since we didn't see one from Fort Myers, we did not pick
up any. Several people did. One family who was going to Asia picked
up a couple from Thailand and another place. I wonder if they will
get  delivered.

Perhaps because people once inhabited this island many of the native
animals are no longer here.

We tried to see sea turtles from the zodiak but it wasn't easy. I saw

one only.
