Galapagos and Beyond: day 21 - home safe and sleepy

---

After 15 hours in the air we finally arrived back in Israel very tired but pleased to be home. We had visited San Francisco, flown via Houston to Quito, toured the Galapagos Islands by yacht with flights from Quito and back, flown via Houston to a Cabo San Lucas resort at the southern tip of the Baja peninsula in Mexico, and now we made it home again via San Franciso long haul. Including indirect connections, our total flight distance was over 27,000 miles / 40,000 km - farther than once around the world.

The next day we would start to reflect on our experiences of the past 21 days !

There was one positive side-effect of our travel weariness and jetlag after the 9-10 hour timezone shift. A couple of days later we celebrated the holiday of Shavuot. Due to our bodies and minds being completely confused about sleep times, we found it easy to participate in the traditional all-night study session.
