Hidden in the grounds of a quaint Inn, in Pto. Ayora, Galapagos Islands. Looking for a small salt shaker, holds logbook and small pen (may want to bring your own). Enough space for small trackables. Named Darwin's Cache in Honour of Charles Darwin and our time spent at the Darwin Centre.
Please respect the fact that it is on private property and the Inn Keepers are good gracious people (and we wish them to stay this way). Rod is the man in charge of taking care of the cache.
The voyage of the Beagle brought the survey ship HMS Beagle, under captain Robert FitzRoy, to the Galápagos on 15 September 1835 to survey approaches to harbours. The captain and others on board, including his companion, the young naturalist Charles Darwin, made observations on the geology and biology on Chatham, Charles, Albemarle and James islands before they left on 20 October to continue on their round-the-world expedition. Primarily a geologist at the time, Darwin was impressed by the quantity of volcanic craters they saw, later referring to the archipelago as "that land of craters." His study of several volcanic formations over the 5 weeks he stayed in the islands, led to several important geological discoveries, including the first, correct explanation for how volcanic tuff is formed. Darwin noticed the mockingbirds differed between islands, though he thought the birds now known as Darwin's finches were unrelated to each other, and did not bother labelling them by island.
