“You’ve been to the Galápagos before, right?”

“Captain Garcia is one of the most experienced cruise ship captains in Ecuador,” adds one of the junior officers.
Perfect. “So, what do you love about the Galápagos?”
“Hmmmm.” He flashes me a wide grin. “How long were you planning to spend on the bridge?”
