I didn't sleep well at all. My stomach was churning, the boat was swaying, my head was full of dreams that I cannot remember - when I finally woke up I felt horrible! In the morning we went to the deck for a boat ride around Daphne Island, the final destination on the itinerary! Then breakfast, I had to eat very slowly as I was still feeling ill, then pack up to go to the airport in Baltra. The good thing is, I have lost some weight due to the sea sickness. The bad thing is, I have become even darker than I originally am due to the exposure to the sun.
It was a sad goodbye for me. I became quite close to all of them, especially Du Yun and we made glorious plans to go travelling together in the future, to Cuba and Iran and Australia and Bolivia - I think it was our way of saying "see you later" instead of goodbye. We all shared the same experiences for a while, and now we will all go our separate ways. I am sad and happy at the same time. Also, I am as usual a bit nervous to be alone again.
The plane landed in Guayaquil at about 3.30 pm, and I took a taxi from the airport to my hotel for USD10. I've given some clothes to be washed, and I decided to take it easy for the rest of the day because of my sensitive stomach, the lack of sleep and the fact that I am still feeling wobbly as if I am on a boat when I am safe and sound on dry land. I am going to research Peru and see what ideas I come up with. Sophia told me that it is better to get to Peru and book tours, you always get it cheaper. I'm inclined to do that, I just hope I get to Peru in one piece.
Tomorrow I will explore Guayaquil.
