Bergensfri 2009

On this page you will find pictures from my annual "away-from-Bergen" trip 2009. The main aim of this years trip was to visit the Galápagos islands during the Darwin year (the year 2009 is the bicentennial of Darwin's birthday (1809) and publication of his most important book "The Origin of Species" (1859)).

I therefore booked a cruise with the motorsailor yacht "The Beagle", and sailed around the Galápagos islands for one week in November 2009. On these pages you will find pictures of the wildlife on these fantastic islands in the eastern parts of the Pacific Ocean.

Also included here are some pictures from mainland Ecuador, where I spent another week and from the Caribbean, where I spent 10 days on Bonaire, one of the ABC Islands just north of Venezuela.
