Visit the Galapagos Islands with O.A.R.S. (Recently Voted One of the Best Outfitters on the Planet)

February 10, 2009.

Did you know…

According to a recent AP story, Charles Darwin was the inventor of the modern office chair.  He put wheels on the chair in his study so he could get to his specimens more quickly — and, bingo, the modern office chair was invented!  (Don’t quote me on this, I can’t verify the fact.)  The world celebrates the 200th anniversary of Darwin’s birthday this week.
 

I say, get up out of your office chairs and visit the Galapagos Islands with O.A.R.S. and see for yourself some of the very wildlife that so inspired Charles Darwin.
