Tortuga Bay is a beautiful and isolated beach located on the south side of Santa Cruz Island. Sea turtles use the white and soft sand for nesting, hence the name “Tortuga Bay.”

Marine Iguanas, brown pelicans and Sally Lightfoot crabs populate the beach, which is next to a brackish lagoon surrounded by the typical coastal vegetation of the islands; cacti, salt bushes and Palo Santo (Holy Stick) trees.

This site is perfect for relaxing and swimming or snorkeling in the calm waters of the nearby cove, walking along the beach or just taking in the magical landscape. Tortuga Bay is probably the most popular beach of the Galapagos Islands and one of the main attractions of Santa Cruz.

Good morning Trissie and thank you for another maritime start!

Just a quick CI as I need to be OTD early this morning.

Have a good day, everyone!

Good morning, SHE-ville, and sending good errands vibes, kittykatt!

So, I have to work from home today, because I need to take DS for a whopping cough test. I mean, my week was already bad and this is certainly not helping. But of course, the bigger problem is DS being very upset by the school requiring him to be chaperoned at almost 15, because what 15 year old wants that kind of treatment! I just feel a lot of times all I do is jump through hoops and yet it's never enough. But all I can do is put one foot in front of another and just continue. So, after having a rather very unproductive evening yesterday, I will try to have a productive morning as we need to leave at 11 to get to hospital on time.

helia, the nap helped me survive till evening, and I perused the stash of frozen (homemade) foods for dinner (I've started making doubles or just taking the time to prep even simpler meals for freezer when I have time and energy, and boy, does it feel good on bad or busy nights to just pull out a box of stew or something and only fix the sides!), so there's that. I challenge you to do the shopping run today! I will be doing the same.
are you really up to scrubbing floors already, L.Ann?

I did have a productive morning, though it was a good show of why I am always behind - the edits I thought would take 30 minutes tops ended up being a 3 hours task. But I realized that there are more law requirements for the process than we knew and had to update everything.
There was some mess-up with DS14's tests, because the hospital that made us an apt for today called that they didn't have the test kits, and referred us to another place and by that time it was easier to just go to the pediatrician whose office hours today were from noon and so their labs won't be sent out till tomorrow morning (which was the reason they wanted us to get tested elsewhere to not lose time). So we should hear back on Saturday. I just don't want to deal with anything or anybody anymore! Do you think the wolves would take me in if I wanted to run away with them?

Good morning!
kitty ~ me, too! Sending vibes!
trissie ~ so sorry... I feel for ds. I'm sure it's quite humiliating in front of his friends. Would be nice if something else could be worked out. Yikes! whooping cough, that doesn't sound good. I've had viruses that sure felt like whooping cough, but wasn't. I've strained ribs and been to the ER for bronchitis. No matter what, they all feel terrible. Hope he feels better soon. p.s... I'm not sure wolves could handle you.
L.Ann ~ dang, supper sounds good!
helia ~ snow is all gone here, as well. We're a bit further south than you, so our high is 60º. neener...neener... I"m sure Bama would one-up me by a long shot.

G made it to the NC house last night. I didn't have a very productive day yesterday, but hoping to gain some ground today.
QT is done, bed made, morning TLC. Ready to move on .....
physio and gym prep next. Off to flybys for cyber hiny kicks.

I'm in on the grocery shopping challenge! My pantry list is low, so that's what I'm going after today.

Just to clarify - DS isn't really poorly, but he does have a weird (for him) cold and yesterday I learned that there was a child just diagnosed with whooping cough in his class, so there was exposure. And this is a tricky illness, because the first stage looks like an ordinary cold, and that's when the antibiotics work really great and take care of it (and also this is the stage when you're REALLY contagious). When the more obvious second stage, with its horrendous and specific cough, comes, the antibiotics don't work all that great anymore, because the damage to the airways was already done.
So, I'd very much want to know if it's just a weird cold, or if it's whooping cough, and I'd like to know it as soon as possible so we could get antibiotics and maybe not get into stage two at all, if you know what I mean!
