Teresa, Katie and I headed down to the equator for a trip to the Galapagos last summer and had a great time. \u00a0I had actually been once before in the seventies when tourism first opened up and was on the first boat ever to give tours. \u00a0The government of Ecuador has done a great job leaving everything natural and the birds and animals still aren’t bothered in the least bit by human visitors.<\/p>\n

We got a chance to see the tortoises, fur seals, all sorts of birds, land and marine iguanas, and lots of flora and fauna. \u00a0Katie did her first ocean snorkeling and did a great job, even when an eight foot shark swam under us! \u00a0She loved swimming with the fur seals. \u00a0I bought a T-shirt down there with a statement by Charles Darwin that totally ties in with how I see life and the Fantasy of Flight concept –<\/p>\n

“It’s not the strongest of the species that survives, nor the most intelligent that survives. <\/em><\/p>\n

It is the one that is the most adaptable to change!”<\/em><\/p>\n

If there is one thing I’ve learned in life . . . the only thing consistent in it is<\/em> change!<\/p>\n

In the long run, the Fantasy of Flight concept is all about taking a step beyond what you perceive yourself to be. \u00a0I’m not sure I’ve evolved much but we’ve all got to start somewhere! \u00a0In my case, I suppose it’s from the ground up!<\/p>\n
