A Busy Day

Phew... What a day. Turns out it's a little hard to find a boat to the Galapagos that leaves the same week during the high season, but I managed to get on a 8 day cruise where I'll be able to do lots of diving on a boat that looks pretty good. It ended up being usd$1300 plus usd$392 airfare to the islands plus usd $100 national park entrance fee which was less that I was expecting to pay, so I'm pretty happy with it. The cruise starts on Sunday but I'm going to get there a day early to wander around a little.

I was also running around organising my flight to Buenos Aires and having more fun looking for apartments. I've found that's available September and October, that I'm in the process of renting, so hopefully tomorrow everything will be sorted and I can relax a bit.

I've also been thinking more about the whole laptop thing and am thinking about getting a lower spec machine as money is getting pretty tight. That or renting one through the real estate agent in Buenos Aires. So far they have successfully ignored that question, but I feel my persistence shall win out in the end.

Not too much else to report. Right now life is great and I'm the happiest I've been for a while, which is saying something as I've been over the moon nearly all year. The Galapagos are going to be great and I can't wait to get to Buenos Aires. Hmm... there must be something in the air.
