join the crew of the math lab as we
visit the Galapagos Islands these unique
isolated Islands have given birth to
amazing creatures birds and plants that
you will find nowhere else on the planet
and inspired a young child Darwin who
created a theory of evolution and we
would never see the world the same again
we just did an all-nighter and we're
waiting for the Sun to rise and that
beautiful sky there's the boat
we finally got a little bit of wind this
never gets old
watching the porpoise come and play
alongside the boat it's just spectacular
it's like the graveyard shift the bow is
the best place to see them but you gotta
be fast filming them it doesn't fit
justice but they weren't the only gift
before tamakwa they look like swallows
but I try feeding them and they would
have nothing of it eventually they
vanished life has settled into a nice
routine on board captain Andy was kept
busy doing countless chores that never
seemed to end well and the fishing rod
fishin Nick
Mark's exercising
I'm gonna have a neck
we all do what we're good at
it just dropped the spinnaker in time
although we had a water maker on board
you never waste water you took advantage
of that to have showers on deck
the series of squalls
gave us wind and we were happy because
finally we were sailing we were making
some good time and we were getting a
little tired of the five not in
get the comment about those links
as the boat started to bounce around the
inevitable question came up how would we
fare and was anybody gonna get seasick
this would be the first grief of many
we were doing a good seven knots with a
reef main and making pretty good time
across current and the wind caused the
Seas to be steep and very uncomfortable
that night mark came up and slept in the
cockpit it was too rough to be down
below by morning we were all feeling a
little green if you liked the video

subscribe next video we deal with
seasickness and a spiteful booby bird
