Photo: Cactus bud

This is a closer view of the cactus blossom I showed yesterday.  There is good news and bad news about this annual event.  The good news is that the cactus blossomed for its annual ritual.  The bad news is that we were away for a couple of days and missed the flower, which lasts for only a day or two.

This week we are showing photos of the Galapagos Islands on our Viva la Voyage travel photo site.
