Islas Palomino

On Friday we visited Islas Palomino. We started from the Port of Callao, on ferries that took us to the Ecocruceros yacht. Our boat ride was about one hour to get out to the island; we enjoyed a calm sea and lots of sunshine. On our way to Palomino we passed by Isla San Lorenzo, a military camp, and also another island that was home to a high security prison. The prison was destroyed during a prison riot years ago. In this trip we were able to see penguins, pelicans, and sea gulls. Once we arrived to Islas Palomino students jumped into the sea to get close to sea lions.
