|[jira] [Commented] (HDFS-3077) Quorum-based protocol for reading and writing edit logs
|Fri, 30 Mar 2012 22:15:29 GMT
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-3077?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13242806#comment-13242806 ] Todd Lipcon commented on HDFS-3077: ----------------------------------- bq. BK also has a notion of Ledger to support multiple clients - we are re-inventing a fair part of BK. One of the arguments was that BK is a general system while thre JD solution has only one client - the NN. True, though BK takes effort to interleave all of the ledgers into a single sequential stream, while writing an index file to allow de-interleaving upon read. This is to support hundreds or thousands of concurrent WALs. In contrast, I think even large HDFS installations would only run a few federated NNs with the current design. So it's a much simpler problem, IMO. bq. One our design is fleshed out, we should compare with BK in an objective way. Absolutely. > Quorum-based protocol for reading and writing edit logs > ------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-3077 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-3077 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: ha, name-node > Reporter: Todd Lipcon > Assignee: Todd Lipcon > > Currently, one of the weak points of the HA design is that it relies on shared storage such as an NFS filer for the shared edit log. One alternative that has been proposed is to depend on BookKeeper, a ZooKeeper subproject which provides a highly available replicated edit log on commodity hardware. This JIRA is to implement another alternative, based on a quorum commit protocol, integrated more tightly in HDFS and with the requirements driven only by HDFS's needs rather than more generic use cases.

Begin your long journey to the Guldaj as the dream urged.
It's late in the day, but you can still go some distance before darkness makes your trek too dangerous. You have a long journey ahead of you. You decide you'd better make the most of the daylight hours you have left. You eat a few more of the strange but sweet red fruits, and make a pack from some large leaves to carry more with you. The unknown country ahead might not provide much to sustain you. It's better to travel prepared.
The day is warm and biting insects are soon buzzing around you, ready to make a meal on any exposed skin they can reach. It feels like you're spending as much energy to wave them away as you do walking beside the bay of Fanek. You move closer to the trees a short way inland from the bay to take advantage of their shade.
With the constant irritants of heat and insects to distract you, it takes some time before you notice anything wrong. Finally, the warning of your hunter's senses breaks through your distraction. Something is moving stealthily through the trees behind you.
Something is stalking you.
The hair on the back of your neck rises as you become increasingly aware of phantom prickling down your spine, a feeling that tells you that you're being watched.
You don't know what's following you. Your heart races and your instincts give you two contradictory messages. Your hand tightens around the shaft of your spear and you know you must choose.

Gintama 258
Well, things sure escalated quick in this arc.
I almost died laughing at the first half of this episode though. Shogun episodes really have the best slapstick comedy parts in the series. Too bad that was over real quick. And ooh the twist! Go! Go! Gin-san! Take over the country and mandate strawberry milk + afternoon naps for everyone!


text:
First, the most basic and obvious facts. On this, Bible believers and skeptics alike have some basic agreements. In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth .... and God saw that it was good (Genesis 1:1, 10). The skeptics won't admit the "creation" part, but they'll certainly agree that the earth was "good:" that's what "Earth Day" is all about. Hooray for earth! Go, Blue! ...
But then Adam and Eve chose to rebel against God, and what Christians call "the Fall" took place: and the earth was utterly shattered. We can't begin to imagine how beautiful this planet was before the Fall; but, even afterwards, it remained magnificent. But so much of its current beauty is the result of catastrophe: think of the Grand Canyon, or mighty mountains pushed up by volcanic activity. Some of the most breathtaking sights on earth are the result of violence .... and the violence came as a result of Adam and Eve's rebellion. In other words, earth started out perfect, and man almost immediately set about ruining it - - - and he's been ruining it ever since. Fundamentalist Christians and radical environmentalists can agree on this part; the latter just leave out the "God" stuff, which they find inconvenient, many of them also being radical theophobes.
The Bible describes earth's current condition, and does so without the help of Al Gore or "Friends of the Earth:" For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now (Romans 8:22). Earthquakes, floods, volcanoes, hurricanes: the planet is suffering. And it's suffering because of man's rebellion. The reason that the lion and the lamb aren't lying down together, yet, is because man destroyed God's perfect environment through sin. And man will not restore that perfect environment through pantheistic orgies like "Earth Day," or even by the most dedicated "science." It will be restored by God, at a time of His choosing, and not until.
(Actually, as Francis Schaeffer pointed out, it's not quite accurate to call today's radical environmentalists "pantheists." Pantheism is the belief that nature is the manifestation of God, or is, quite literally, God: that God consists of the rocks and trees and star clusters. But the "Earth Day" types don't, as a rule, believe that God exists at all. They don't believe that everything [pan-] is God, because they don't believe God is there in any form. So, as Schaeffer said, they should be called "pan-everythingists." They don't believe that everything is God; they believe that everything is everything. They just haven't worked out the absurdity of their presuppositions. And I'm not picking on the "Earth Day" people: Al Gore didn't invent pantheism. Hindus and Buddhists and Native Americans have pantheistic elements in their ideologies; but at least they connect the visible with some sort of Deity, which the modern, educated Westerners simply don't.)
There are, to be sure, professing Christians who are terribly concerned about the state of the planet .... infinitely more concerned, I might add, than they are about the state of other men's souls. These liberal "Christians," who predominate in the mainline denominations (Roman Catholic and most Protestant groups), will weep, and weep sincerely, over the destruction of a species or the clear-cutting of a forest, or beat their breasts over "fracking;" but they won't shed a tear over millions of people going to Hell every week because they haven't heard the Gospel of Jesus Christ. They will yammer about "stewardship," and say that Adam and Eve (in whom they really don't believe) were put here to be "stewards" of the Garden. Which is true; but they don't talk about the Fall, and how sin changed everything. When the Bible refers to "stewardship" in the New Testament, it is not talking about "preventing global warming." That's a political position; and clergymen who present it as the Gospel are traitors to their calling, if they've been called at all. They're infidels, and they literally don't give a damn about the souls of men and women. If that offends you, go ahead and let your blood pressure shoot up: it won't affect your "carbon footprint."
So, what about "global warming?" (That term isn't used so much any more; as it's gradually being discredited, the pan-everythingists are talking about "climate change.") Not being a scientist, I'm not going to enter that discussion, but as a middling student of the Bible, I can tell you God's plans for the earth. At some point in the future (I believe the very near future), Jesus Christ is going to return to this planet, in the Flesh, with the scars showing, and sit down on David's Throne in Jerusalem, to rule the world with a rod of iron. The planet will be restored for a thousand years; that's when the lion and lamb will lie down together, and the toddler will play, safely, with the rattlesnake and the anaconda. The planet will be ruled, politically, by the Jews: not the "Messianic Jews" or the "former Jews," but the Jews. And at the end of that time, there will be a final Judgment, the Great White Throne judgment of God, where every man and woman who hasn't received Jesus Christ will finally get his or her "day in court." (I won't be there; my sins were judged at Calvary.) Then, Satan will be bound and cast into Hell ..... and the human race will finally see what "global warming" is all about:
But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up (2 Peter 3:10).
...And eternity will continue, and Heaven and Hell will continue ... and you and I will continue, in one of those places. The earth will be, for some, a memory; others will have more wonderful things to think about.
What is the current significance of the planet earth? It's a place of great beauty, but also great ugliness; great joy, but also unending heartache. But, as someone said, many many years ago: "This earth is all of Heaven that an unbeliever in Jesus Christ will ever see - - - and all of Hell that a believer will ever see."
Enjoy "Earth Day," if you like. Make yourself feel good by "caring for the planet." But if you care about the things that are really important, like your relationship with the Creator, why not make this the day to actually meet Him, to receive the Lord Jesus Christ? But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name (John 1:12). Forget the politics and the fads and the fashions, and learn what life is all about! You won't be disappointed!

All Boys' Soccer Content
Illineks' rally comes up short
MONTICELLO – Giving up apparently is not part of the curriculum taught at Urbana Uni High School.
Despite trailing by three late, the Illineks would not let up in their 3-2 sectional-final loss to Teutopolis on Monday.
Chargers finally raze Bolen wall
CHAMPAIGN – For most of Saturday's 80 minutes of soccer, Urbana goalkeeper Spencer Bolen was threatening to make Centennial's postseason life miserable.
The senior made a string of sensational saves to keep the Class 2A regional championship match scoreless heading into overtime.
Chargers wrap up Big 12 soccer
CHAMPAIGN – Before Thursday's boys' soccer match, Centennial's seniors were recognized.
Afterward, the real celebration took place.
Oakwood soccer making great strides
FITHIAN – In its first three years of existence, Oakwood's boys' soccer team won seven matches. This season, the Comets already have a 9-5-2 mark, including victories against some of the area's strongest teams.
"The first thing I noticed when I got (to Oakwood) was that nobody had ever really pushed (this team) to be good," first-year coach Eric Fenton said. "I think in the past all they've done is just kick and run, and now they're looking to make the quick pass, making little cuts off that – actually playing soccer."
Tricky Ricardo magical again
CHAMPAIGN – Centennial soccer coach Cole Bushue undoubtedly will celebrate the day Champaign Central star Ricardo Vega graduates.
Vega bedeviled Bushue's Chargers on Monday, scoring the game-tying goal in the 53rd minute as the teams played to a 1-1 tie in the Battle of Champaign.
Blackman closes in on 450 matches with Urbana soccer team
URBANA – In 1986, Urbana needed a boys' soccer coach. The Tigers turned to an assistant wrestling coach named Randy Blackman.
"When the soccer position opened up, nobody would take it," said his wife, Ann. "So he kind of had his arm twisted. But he'd never played soccer (and) he'd never coached soccer. He studied physical education at (Eastern Illinois) so he had part of one class dedicated to soccer, but that's about it."
Tie leaves soccer teams on opposite ends
CHAMPAIGN – Twelve minutes into Monday's Champaign Central-Urbana soccer match, the Maroons led 2-0 and appeared to be cruising.
But this was Central-Urbana. Nothing comes easy.
Booster clubs give major help for Champaign programs
CHAMPAIGN – Last October, less than eight minutes remained during the Champaign Central-Centennial boys' soccer match on the Chargers' lighted field.
Then the lights went out.
Adding spice to a rivalry
CHAMPAIGN – When Centennial and Champaign Central get together for a tennis dual match today, more than just intracity bragging rights will be on the line.
Centennial's first-year coach is Jill Harms, a former Grinnell College player who was a standout at Central under current Maroons coach Gary Day.
Bullock, Centennial teammates seek state tournament berth
CHAMPAIGN – Centennial forward Kyle Bullock has seen the increased work ethic and commitment that the Chargers hope will propel them toward their goals.
And make no mistake: The soccer team's goals are appropriately lofty.

The review of the custom code has become a priority because of the liberalization of intra-Community trade.
The code contains the general rules and procedures for the application of tariff and other common policy measures.
The measures were introduced at Community level in the context of trade in goods between the customs territory of the 15- Member States of the ECOWAS and third countries in accordance with the requirements of these common policies.
The three-Day regional validation meeting at the Nigeria Customs Command has been on to accelerate and simplify customs procedures in the region, among others.
Mr. Laouali Chaibou, the ECOWAS Commissioner for Trade, Customs & Free Movement, described the review and validation meeting as another positive step in the building of a customs union in accordance with the objectives of the Treaty establishing the ECOWAS.
According to the Commissioner, since the Community is based on a customs union at this stage, and in accordance with the principles of attribution and subsidiarity, it is in the interest of both the economic operators of the region and the Customs Administrations to collect customs legislation in a code.
According to him, the draft also lays down "extensive harmonization, which is conceived as a means of contributing to the realization of the customs union.
Chaibou noted further that the presence of terrorist acts and illicit trafficking undermine the security of populations and the economic development of States.
While seeking the reduction of barriers to trade, he spoke of the need to increase security and safety at the external borders of the Community.
The use of information and communication technologies he stressed, should be accompanied by a harmonized and standardized application of customs controls by all Member States.
This is to ensure an equivalent level of customs control throughout the Community.
The Assistant Comptroller General of the Nigeria Customs Service Dr. Patience Iferi, harped on the need for a harmonized customs operations in the region.
He stressed that Trade Facilitation had become an issue to be talked about in years to come while the adoption of the Trade Facilitation Agreement (TFA) in Bali, Indonesia in 2012 has changed the dynamics of management of international trade.

Surrey will look to a South African double act to lead them back into Division One of the County Championship next season after confirming the appointment of Graham Ford as head coach to work alongside Graeme Smith for the remaining two years of his contract as captain.
As first reported in the Guardian in August, Ford has been lured away from international cricket after two years in charge of Sri Lanka to return to the county game, having previously spent several seasons with Kent.
The news has already been welcomed by a third native of South Africa, Kevin Pietersen, who tweeted enthusiastically on Monday morning. Alec Stewart, who took temporary charge of the team for the second half of the 2013 season after the dismissal of Chris Adams, confirmed that Pietersen had been consulted before the appointment of Ford. "Kevin swears by him," said Stewart. "He's worked with him from a very young age right to now – if he's got any technical problems, he still goes back to Graham Ford."
That should cheer the England team director Andy Flower and the batting coach Graham Gooch no end.
However much Pietersen would like to play under Ford at Surrey, his county appearances will inevitably be restricted by England's busy summer, and his expected absence from the early stages of the season playing in the Indian Premier League. But Surrey are hopeful that Smith will be available for almost all of the campaign after injury cut short his first season with the club.
The 32-year-old has recovered from his ankle problems to lead South Africa in their two-Test series against Pakistan that started in Abu Dhabi on Monday – he was one of two early victims for Mohammad Irfan as the Proteas slipped to 150 for four after winning the toss – and as things stand, he will only be called away for a short series in Zimbabwe in August.
"I've spoken to Graeme Smith about the appointment and he was very pro Graham Ford," added Stewart. "Graham will be running things on a day-to-day basis – it's his team and his dressing room, and I'll be sitting above."
Stewart also confirmed that he had consulted with Kent players including Rob Key and Geraint Jones, who all gave Ford glowing endorsements.
Ford, who is due to take over at The Oval in February, was quoted as saying in a press release: "I am delighted to once again be involved in English cricketing system. I have, for a long while, been an admirer of Surrey CCC and see it as a great privilege to be actively involved in such a fine club. I look forward to the exciting times ahead."

Where I stayed
GAP liveaboard ship
From Quito it's a 160 mile, just over half an hour flight to the port town of 'Guayaquil', during which we can see the volcano 'Cotopaxi', which has been dormant for 70 years. They do manage to serve us a drink and a couple of tiny pasties (empenadas) before we land. The 737 has to be refueled for the 600 miles to the airport of Baltra on the Galapagos. We stay on board during refueling but are told to sit with our seatbelts unfastened, presumably in case we have to do a 'runner!' After an hour we're off again into cloud and 2 hours later land on the runway at Baltra. The runway is surprisingly long because it was a US base in the second world war, its purpose was to provide air cover for the Panama Canal from the south. A small terminal is all that is left as all remnants of the US base have been removed, the only visible signs are a few foundations and the overgrown road layout. We pay our 'Galapagos National Park" fees of $100 each and receive our permits to enter, before boarding an old coach to a ferry that takes us from 'Isla Baltra" the 200 metres south to "Isla Santa Cruz" and another old coach
The 20 mile bumpy ride south across the island to the port of 'Puerto Ayora' passes through a few small towns and large areas of trees and vegetation. It is the start of the warm, wet season when the "dead' trees, which have no leaves in summer, spring to life and take advantage of the rains. Puerto Ayora is a town of some 11,000 people and has grown on the big tourist business that is now Galapagos. I was surprised that there were any people living on the islands at all, as my concept was of a completely controlled nature reserve, although building and immigration to some extent is limited by the National Park Authority.
As we waited to be transferred to our boat from the jetty in the harbour, I noticed dozens of bright orange crabs with spectacular coloured patterns, crawling all over the rocks and harbour walls, whilst several Blue Footed Boobies were dive bombing for fish nearby. We are taken out to our boat, amongst the many in the harbour, by a small 'Zodiac' type inflatable, which was to be our main means of transport from the ship on our shore trips. It was early afternoon and we dumped our bags in our small upper cabin, were introduced to our National Park guide, Luis and set off in the coach again to 'The Highlands Farm'. This was originally a cattle farm and although there are still a few around, it is now a tourist centre, based on the giant Galapagos tortoises that migrate there during the hot summers because it retains water and grass for them in the (cooler) highlands
We reached the farm and as we walked round the intensive woodland we came across the Giant Galapagos tortoises, some of them over a metre long and nearly a metre high. There are two main activities for the tortoises, sleeping and eating (with the odd bout of difficult sex thrown in). As it was getting later in the afternoon they were slowly becoming active, like enormous half barrel shaped, ultra slow motion lawnmowers chomping their way across the grassy areas. Intriguing beasts, as they live up to 200 years old.
Back to the boat, hot showers (!!!!) and then a cocktail reception to properly meet our fellows and the crew of 7, who between them do everything that needs doing
Wednesday 9th January
Up at 6am (I was too tired for the 'I'm on holiday' bit) for breakfast, after watching Boobies and Pelicans feeding in the early morning whilst Frigate Birds wheeled over us. Then off by zodiac at 7am, we landed at 'Cero Dragon' on the north side of Isla Santa Cruz. Climbing up the lava rock shore we saw our first Marine Iguanas, warming themselves in the sun. They were about 2 feet long and I was surprised at their size, as I had the impression from the TV nature progammes that they were a lot bigger. We trekked inland and saw Land Iguanas (slightly bigger, lighter coloured and shorter tails, as they don't swim like the marines), Galapagos Fly Catchers - the male was a gorgeous bright yellow, Galapagos Dove - the size of a Blackbird but beige with black markings and white eye circles, tiny grey, white and black Lava Lizards on the ground amongst the trees, shrubs and cactus
Back to the boat for lunch, yes - we're on three meals a day, during which we sailed to 'Puerto Ergas' on 'Isla Santiago' in the north, for the afternoon tour. This was to be a 'wet' landing on a beach, where we walked the last few metres through the waves from the zodiac. The beach was filled with sealions of all sizes, who paid no attention to us at all. We climbed off the beach and along a rocky lava foreshore to see more sealions, hundreds of Marine Iguanas, many of them 'sneezing' the salt out of their noses after an underwater grazing session. They feed on weed on the rocks underwater and can go to 14 metres deep for an hour. The coloured crabs were everywhere and there was a rock formation known as 'Darwen's Toilet', a large hole that filled and emptied from the surging tide below. Back to the beach and a tricky boarding in the now surging surf. For me, the two Galapagos animals I wanted to see were the Giant Tortoises and the Marine Iguanas and I had seen them both in the first 24 hours. Dinner and then another early night to catch up on sleep, thankfully undisturbed as the captain had sailed to tomorrow's first location during the evening. On the way to our cabin we went forward to the upper deck and looked up at a myriad of stars. We found 'Orion' but anything else was lost in this overwhelming astronomical display.
Thursday 10th January
We were on the east side of 'Isla Santiago', in a bay where 'Isla Bartolomeis' is joined to the main island by a narrow isthmus of sand. A 'dry' landing onto rocks and as we walked along the coast, we watched Boobies diving into the sea and two penguins swimming in a sheltered cove that also contained the ringed outline of a volcano, just showing above the sea level. It's amazing that there are Penguins on Galapagos as they are a cold water bird but a (very) few have managed to settle here. The island is marked by a tall rock pinnacle, created by aircraft bombing practice and its overall barrenness. We climbed the 365 steps, installed by the National Park, to the top of the hill that dominates the island and were rewarded with a fabulous view of the bay, the isthmus and the adjoining island. Parts of the area are just as barren and rugged as a lunar landscape.
Returning to the boat, we changed into swimgear and were taken by zodiac farther round the coast to snorkel back. We dropped into about 5 metres of water and saw seven, two metres long white tipped sharks dozing under a large rock. After the initial shock, we could carefully look at these sleek, impressive creatures, who were not bothered about us at all
The afternoon tour is to "North Seymour' island. We are greeted by the site of enormous blue surf breaking onto the lava rocks at the end of the island. We pass a small colony of seals, who are dozing on the rocky ledges and I watch one mother pick up a tiny cub by the scruff of the neck and carry him up away from the incoming surf. As we walk round the shrub area we see Frigate Bird big chicks, sitting on their scruffy clump of twigs nests, waiting to be fed. Frigate males have a red pouch on their necks, which is normally flat but to attract a female he blows it up like an enormous balloon. Further on is a colony of Blue Footed Boobies and yes, their feet and legs are bright blue. There are several females sitting on nests, which are just a saucer shaped hole in the ground but the females are half crouched so that the one or two eggs are shaded but a breeze can blow under her to cool the egg(s). Fascinating. In another part of the colony the mating ritual is taking place where the males 'dance' to attract a mate
Back on the boat Norah saw a big Sting Ray leap out of the water, dolphin style and then fall on his back in the sea. This was done three times and it seems it is to clean parasites off the rays
In the evening there was a cocktail 'goodbye' for our fellows who were on the 4 day tour. Dinner ended with an enormous iced, chocolate sponge cake. After dinner Luis, our guide, showed us a video that he had taken of the volcanic eruption on the nearby island 2 years ago
As we went to bed there was a solitary Pelican circling the boat, like an unofficial night watchman.
Friday 11th January
In the morning our 'night watchman' was still on guard but as the light grew he flew off to find his own breakfast.
We had sailed a short distance in the evening south to 'Turtle Cove' on 'Isla Santa Cruz' and were in the boats at 0730 (What holiday ? - this is expedition stuff worthy of David Attenborough). We entered a lagoon that was less than a Km long, 100 m wide but narrowed into short passages that the zodiac could just get through amid the surrounding thick mangrove trees. Where's the 'African Queen' when you need her? Once we were well into the lagoon the outboard was stopped and the boatman paddled. We had been told that this was a resting area for wildlife, hence the 'silent running'
Back to the boat and then sail the short distance to Baltra channel, where our departing party were taken the short distance to the airport. The ship was refueled and provisioned whilst we waited for the new arrivals.
Minimal introductions, lunch and then on to 'Mosquerias', an ominously sounding spit of sand and rock, that we had seen near North Seymour yesterday. A 'wet' landing, to impress our newcomers, which was accompanied by the constant barking and attention of a big bull sealion that we had to keep an eye on as he saw us as invading rivals. The many sealions swimming outside the breaking surf were doing the usual stunt of swimming along sideways with one fin out of the water, which from a distance looked like a shark fin
Supper and another welcoming cocktail from Luis, the crew member who ran the bar, (OH YES!) on the upper deck. Although since coming on board I have drunk only (lots of) water and the odd cup of coffee.
Saturday 12th January
The captain had motored south during the evening and we were at 'Isla Santa Maria' or 'Floriana Island'. Adjacent was the remnant of a large volcano caldera that had been battered and broken by the sea until it resembled a crown - thus called 'The Devil's Crown'
Back to the boat, changed into swimgear and then the zodiacs dropped us off in the sea down the coast for a snorkel. The water temp up till now had been, I guess, around 20deg, but this was decidedly cooler and there was a slight current running, which made for an energetic fin. We must be getting fitter with all this walking and snorkeling! We saw many bright coloured fish, a couple of rays on the bottom and then a white tip shark. Luis, our guide, was hoping to see hammerheads but there were none about. On the way back to the boat someone shouted "Dolphins", so we bundled back on board and rushed to the front decks as the captain put on speed to reach the area. We spotted a group of dolphins on one side of the boat, then the other, then behind and realised we were absolutely surrounded by them. There must have been over a hundred all over the sea, constantly charging forward and surfacing in all directions. The captain kept his speed on and soon the dolphins zoomed in on this plaything and crowded round the bow, where they raced in front and interchanged places in the bow wave, occasionally surfacing for a quick breath of air and then back in this race game
The afternoon was a wet landing on 'Post Office Bay', so called because in the 1700's an English sea captain had left a barrel on the island as a sort of mail staging post. Any boat coming out from England would leave letters, maps, etc. for other ships and ships coming home would pick up any mail from outgoing sailors. The word soon spread and is still being used today. You leave a card or letter and someone will pick it up and eventually it will be delivered.
We trekked further into the island and came across another lava tunnel, only this one was a scramble down three steep wooden ladders, through a one metre wide hole and then into a tunnel, 5 metres high and 4 metres wide. We had brought torches but the blackness swallowed the light from them. After about 100 metres we entered seawater that slowly rose, after another 100m, to thigh depth
During the evening we had a long 6 hour sail to the next island so it was not too relaxing a night as there was a long swell which made the boat pitch and roll around a bit.
Sunday 13th January
Up early (no change there) and I watched many fish around the boat, including the ever present brown Puffer Fish and today a solitary Blue Puffer. We also had the usual stowaways – two or three
sealions that climbed onto the flat swimming platform at the back of the boat
to sleep. It must be more comfortable than the rocks ! The, by now usual, 7am breakfast and off in the zodiacs by 8am. We were at 'Isla Espanola' and were landing at 'Gardner Bay', a gorgeous long white, fine sandy beach with turquoise blue water in the bay. The usual reception committee of dozens of sea lions, of all ages, awaited us and as we walked along the beach we saw a tiny pup that still had an umbilical cord, so he must have been less than a day old
Back where we had left the bags was a young sealion, who had decided that mine made an excellent pillow and as he was quite comfortable, thank you, he made no effort to move, no matter how close we dared to approach. We carefully removed one bag from behind him and as he whipped round to see what was happening, I stepped in and grabbed mine, causing him to lie back on the bare sand with a most disgusted look on his face! What happened to the dumb animals bit?
We had brought snorkel gear and as we walked into the sea there was another young sealion playing by zooming around us. We snorkelled out over the white sand and rock bottom and with the ever present show of fish there were two stingrays sheltering
The afternoon was at the other side of the island at "Punta Suarez', where a dry landing involved coaxing the sunbathing sealions off the small jetty before we could land. A big bull was shouting his presence and the path was strewn with Marine Iguanas. On the rocky beach all sizes of sealions frolicked or dozed and on our rocky path inland, it was necessary to pick our way, as Blue Footed Boobies were either nesting, with eggs or chicks, or 'dancing' in their courtship ritual. We were followed by the Hooded Mockingbirds and saw the tiny Darwen Finches and a bigger species of Lava Lizard. Farther on was a colony of Nazca Boobies, which are a very smart white bird with black wings.
At a high cliff point on the island we saw a 'blowhole', caused by a fault in the rocks, shoot spray from the incoming surf up into the air. There was a small group of Tern like birds with long tails, who whirled noisily in the air and in the distance a large Albatross chick was waiting for his parents to come back and feed him. We had just missed the Albatrosses as they had left the island, which was a shame but there was plenty of other wildlife about.
Our path round the island had been mostly over large rocks and this was quite tiring in the hot, I guess high 80's, afternoon sun
We were now to sail north back towards 'Isla Santa Fe' and at our nightly briefing we were told that this would be a steady haul, as we were only able to run on one engine. Even with the constant throb of the engine, I had got used to the quite pleasant sensation of being 'rocked' to sleep.
Monday 14th January
Breakfast at 0630 and in the zodiacs by 7 (no - am!!!) Surely David Attenborough didn't have to be up this early? We were in a small, narrow bay with the island (Santa Fe) on one side and a long, thin rocky outcrop on the other. The sealions were already (noisily) awake and a squadron of Boobies were wheeling and dive bombing for their breakfast. The weather was cloudy and a bit cooler, or was it cos it was so bloomin early? The boat was surrounded by fish again and we wet landed on a small beach. A couple of cute sealion pups came to greet us, obviously figuring that as we had come from the sea, we must have something to feed them with
We hiked inland, walking round dozing sealions on the path and as we progressed onto rocks, we reached an area of many large cactususes (cacti?), some collapsed ones showed the cellular internal structure that enables them to store water. There were Santa Fe Land Iguanas here, larger than the ever present Marine Iguanas and very light coloured. They only feed on the plants around them and in the hot summer season have a quite a lean time. A return to the beach, where the two little pups had found three playmates and were romping round like puppy dogs.
Back to the boat, quick change and then a zodiac ride to be dropped off into the water, at the end of the point, for a last snorkel. It was still cloudy and there was a slight feel of rain in the wind. Dozens of fish, including a new 10cm one that was a spectacular blue with irridescent light blue spots down the side. Snorkelling along the rocks, passing the Pelicans, Boobies, crabs, marine Iguanas and few sealions. There were no juveniles wanting to play, only a smaller youngster, who was a bit overawed by the size of these 'strangers' and kept his distance. A stingray 'flew' across the bottom, occasionally stopping to feed and here were several blue Puffer Fish around
During lunch we sailed to 'Islas Plaza' and another long lava strip protected bay. We landed on the jetty, stepping over the usual dozing sealions and followed the rocky path inland. There were a lot of large cacti on this island and many of them were blooming in pretty yellow flowers. Sitting under the cacti were, larger than the Marine Iguanas, light coloured Land Iguanas waiting for the flowers to fall so they could eat them. During the four months of really dry season they have nothing to eat and anything that falls produces a panic scramble and a rugby scrum. There are hybrids of Land and Marine Iguanas, which have learnt to climb the cactus plants and feed first but they never reproduce as a sub species.
On the far side we came to high lava cliffs, where Grey Gulls and Shearwaters were nesting on the rocky ledges and zooming out around the cliff tops. A steady trek back in the hot afternoon sun and as we reached the jetty we noticed the large male bull, who had settled on the path and was not for shifting. After some serious goading and him retaliating when our guide tried to persuade him, he eventually moved just to the side of the path, causing us all to have to run the gauntlet to get to the waiting zodiac. What an end to our last island visit
In the late afternoon we sit on the upper deck bar area and have drinks while we are heading back to port. I glimpse a large ray leap out of the water in the cleaning activity. We have the last briefing and goodbye cocktails with the crew and then another good dinner with the official celebration sponge cake. The meals on board have been very well done with everything being hot and fresh and plenty of veg, salads and fruit. I think this impressed me most.
Tuesday 15th January
Guess what? Yes - early start! We had already packed before breakfast at 0630 and on the zodiacs to the port and a coach at 7am to the 'Charles Darwin Centre', which is responsible for maintaining and studying the animal life in the Galapagos. They have a tortoise breeding programme to maintain the animals in the wild. We saw the last surviving Giant Tortoise from one of the islands, 'Lonesome George' and they are hoping he will mate with a close species female. As he's only 95 there's plenty of time yet!
Reflection - This has been an absolutely fabulous tour and we've loved every minute of it - even the getting up early! It's been hectic, tiring, exciting, fascinating and we've seen some incredible animals and scenery. I feel we've seen everything that we would have wanted in this amazing week.

Bixler Vineyards – Lodi, California
2009 Union Island Red
When David Bixler came to the California Delta after his prosperous run during the Nevada Silver Rush of the 1860's, little did he know that a wine brand in his namesake would be born some 150 years later. The vineyards of Augusta Bixler Farms encompass approximately 300 acres on Union Island in the South San Joaquin Delta. Here, the rich fertile sandy-loam delta soils, along with a unique microclimate make this location ideal for growing premium wine grapes. Warm summer days leading to predictably cool Delta breezes each evening, are key elements contributing to ideal fruit ripeness and the creation of Bixler Vineyards wines. The 2009 Union Island Red is the 3rd vintage producing their benchmark red under the careful eye of winemaker Heather Pyle. It is comprised of 60% Merlot, 17% Petite Sirah, 13% Syrah, and 10% Tempranillo all from August Bixler Farms. The wine exhibits rich, ripe, forward fruit, with flavors of ripe cherries, plums and berries. A hint of aromatic French oak is also apparent throughout. The finish is smooth and persistent. Drink now through 2014. This hearty wine is very approachable, pairing nicely with most any grilled red meat, sausages, winter stews or soups, pizza or marinara pasta dishes. Being nicely balanced and silky smooth; this wine is perfectly suited for a superb meal or simply as a cocktail by the fireplace or your next get-together with family and friends!
Fairview Wines – South Africa
2008 La Capra Merlot
The home of Fairview wines is a 300 ha farm on the south-west-facing slopes of Paarl Mountain, a granite rock outcrop in the heart of the Paarl wine district, viticulturally among the most historic and influential areas of the Cape wine lands. Winemaking on the farm can be traced back to 1699, not quite a half-century after the first European settlers arrived in southern Africa. But its wines entered the modern era with the first bottling under the Fairview label in 1974 by the Back family, owners since 1937. Today, some three decades later, grandson Charles Back II has brought Fairview wines to world markets including the whimsical La Capra label. The Festival La Capra takes place at Fairview and marks the arrival of Spring in the wine lands. La Capra wines flow while fantastic food and fabulous friends are celebrated to the beat of uplifting music. The winery's home vineyard in South Africa's Stellenbosch region has an ideal climate for growing Merlot grapes, and the 2008 growing season produced fruit of exceptional quality. After 12 months in a mix of French and American oak barrels, the wine was ready to bottle and release — and for all of us to enjoy with friends. It has exotic aromatics, with a fresh cherries and currants. There is sweet fruit (plum, red & black cherries) on the palate, with softer tannins and gentle oak influence. This wine is ready now and will continue to develop in the bottle for another year or two. It is very suitable to spicy foods, in particular curries – both Indian and Thai.
Bergevin Lane Vineyards – Walla Walla, Washington
2009 Linen Chardonnay Wahluke Slope
In the beginning months of 2001, Annette Bergevin and Amber Lane co-founded and created Bergevin Lane Vineyards with Gary Bergevin (Annette's father). The goal for Amber and Annette was to "leave the rat race behind" in California and get back to what they each wanted from life. Annette wanted to be close to her family and long-time friends, and Amber wanted to take on new challenges and continue her personal path of growth and education. Gary's 20 years of experience in the wine industry in both the vineyard and business aspects, was the catalyst to start the winery. Together they brainstormed, worked hard, and brought to fruition Bergevin Lane. Linen Chardonnay is a new addition to their line and has come just in time for spring. It is a natural beauty, with a natural purity and freshness that is simply delicious. This elegant white wine has bright fruit notes of ripe pear and citrus blossoms on the nose. On the palette there are succulent flavors of golden apple, apricot, pineapple and honeydew. With a hint of honey on the finish, the crisp and clean wine delivers with a truly unique union of fruit and acidity. This is an invigorating wine that is wonderful on its own or alongside a wide range of foods. Pair with cheeses, hors d'oeuvres, white meats in cream sauce, and broiled white fish.
Pacific Wine – Woodinville, Washington
2009 Eye of the Needle Syrah Columbia Valley
Eye of the Needle Columbia Valley Syrah is not your typical over extracted fruit bomb. This is a deliberately lighter-bodied Syrah, emphasizing the riotous flavors this grape offers without resorting to the sort of 30-weight density that many Syrah producers shoot for, in hopes of a big scores. It's hard, with our current mania for Power Syrahs to remember that Syrah makes a dazzling rose wine and has traditionally been, in its French origins, a more medium-bodied wine that can be paired with a far greater variety of foods than you think, given its current, universal appeal as a steak and lamb wine. This Syrah is actually a blend of 80% Syrah, 15% Mourvedre and 5% Counoise all from Columbia Valley. It is crammed with blackberry, currant, smoke, vanilla, plum, fig, caramel, and black raspberry flavors – all spoken rather than screamed, as in the Power Syrahs. The texture is smooth and there are zero hard edges and it finishes very persistent. This is a Washington Syrah that loves food. Pair with grilled meats, roasts, pasta with red sauces or hearty cheeses. Perfect now through 2014.
Waving Tree Vineyards – Goldendale, Washington
2006 Grenache Columbia Valley
Waving Tree Vineyards and Winery is a small family owned and operated vineyard and winery, featuring mostly estate wines grown on the bank of the Columbia River just below the Stonehenge Monument. The winery is operated by Goldendale native farmer turned winemaker Terrence Atkins. In the early 2000's Terrence and his family began experimenting with grape vines and found out through trial and error that non-traditional Washington grapes (specifically Italian varietals) grew extremely well in the area. With that knowledge, they planted Nebbiolo, Barbera, Zinfandel, Sangiovese and Grenache. Terrence's daughter Kimiko now manages the vineyards while Terrence continues on making the wines. Waving Tree's 2006 Grenache is sourced from 100% estate fruit. Aromas of blackberry, cocoa, cedar and marinated pepper, follow through on a bright, lively entry to a fruity-yet-dry medium bodied with tangy citrus and spice notes. It then finishes with a crisp berry, plum and pepper fade. Drink now through 2013. Serve at room temperature with burgers, grilled bratwursts, sausages, and ham.
Bixler Vineyards – Lodi, California
2009 Union Island Pinot Grigio
When David Bixler came to the California Delta after his prosperous run during the Nevada Silver Rush of the 1860's, little did he know that a wine brand in his namesake would be born some 150 years later. The vineyards of Augusta Bixler Farms encompass approximately 300 acres on Union Island in the South San Joaquin Delta. Here, the rich fertile sandy-loam delta soils, along with a unique microclimate make this location ideal for growing premium wine grapes. Warm summer days leading to predictably cool Delta breezes each evening, are key elements contributing to ideal fruit ripeness and the creation of Bixler Vineyards wines. The 2009 Union Island Pinot Grigio is the 3rd vintage producing their benchmark white under the careful eye of winemaker Heather Pyle. The 2009 Pinot Grigio is made from 89% Pinot Grigio, 6% Viognier, and 5% Chardonnay all from the Augusta Bixler Farms estate. The wine shows crisp citrus notes, light-to-medium body, with ripe fruit flavors of grapefruit and a hint of pineapple. In order to allow the crisp fruit flavors to be fully expressed, no oak was used during the aging of this wine. This Pinot Grigio was created to be very refreshing as well as approachable. It will make a terrific compliment to shellfish, ceviche' and lighter appetizers, and is a great warm weather sipping wine by the pool or on the patio. Drink now through 2013.
Tuga – Portugal
2009 Tuga Vinhos Do Douro DOC
Douro is a Portuguese wine region centered around the Douro River in the Trás-os-Montes e Alto Douro region. It is sometimes referred to as the Alto Douro (upper Douro), as it is located some distance upstream from Porto, sheltered by mountain ranges from coastal influence. The region has Portugal's highest wine classification as a Denominação de Origem Controlada (DOC). While the region is associated primarily with Port wine production, the Douro produces just as much table wine (non-fortified wines) as it does fortified wine. The non-fortified wines are typically referred to as "Douro wines". The 2009 Tuga is made from the traditional indigenous grapes of the Douro Valley: Tinta Roriz, Touriga Franca, Tinta Barroca and Touriga Nacional, this is a medium bodied ruby colored wine, with young, brambly, fruity aromas. Soft and round in the mouth, with a small touch of creamy vanilla from the brief passage through barrels. Very persistant and elegant easy drinking. Pair with poultry or grilled lighter red meats.
Poggio Alle Sughere – Italy
2007 Sangiovese Toscana
Thirty years ago 'Lionello Marchesi', a successful industrialist decided to devote himself to his great passion, wine-growing. So began a fascinating story that culminated in the acquisition of three very important estates in Tuscany. The purchase and restoration of an historic monastery at Castelnuovo Berardenga, in the heart of the Siena Chianti Classico area, saw the creation of a prestigious agricultural and residential complex, the present-day Castello di Monastero. Montalcino, the homeland of one of the most famous wines in the world, saw the acquisition and renovation of the Coldisole Estate. Joined by the foundation of Poggio alle Sughere in the Tuscan Maremma area. Lionello's philosophy, concentrates on the territory and grapes: the wines must be an expression of these two components and highlight their best aspects through attentive management of the vineyards, harvest, vinification and ageing. This wine is 100% Sangiovese. Soft aromas of raspberries and strawberries. Medium-bodied wine with hints of sweet raspberries at the front and middle of your palate followed by darker fruits of plums. A good, balanced wine. Should be paired with spaghetti (not overly sauced), ham or barbecue.
Domaine Familongue – France
2008 L'Envol de Familongue Blanc
Familongue winery is located 30 km west from Montpellier, producing mainly AOC wines. At the beginning of this project, they owned only 4 hectares but now Familongue vineyards cover 25 hectares and is situated in the north and south of their village on specific geological soils. Their vines are located in the north and south of the village "Saint André de Sangonis" on well drained soil where their grapes are emerged with the smell of "garrigue" and are ripened under the Languedoc sun. As self-made wine growers, they learned wine-making skills from experienced wine growers and oenologists concentrating on long moments of tasting and direct observation. Domaine Familongue focuss on the quality , care for the grapes and on good environmental management of the vineyard. They are also very close to nature conservation. Keeping and rearing birds is their second strong passion. That is why their birds are the emblem of their winery and are printed on our wine labels. The 2008 L'Envol de Familongue Blanc is a dry White wine made from 65% Grenache , 20% Clairette, 10 % Roussane, and 5% Viognier. This wine is very fresh and delicate with an attractive pale gold color and green hints. The nose is intense with citrus aromas and subtle peppery, ginger notes. The taste has a supple mouth-feel with fresher acidity and lovely burst of jasmine on the finish. Excellent with fish and a perfect deck wine. Drink now through 2013.
