Thanks. Can you tell me the weather/temp now on your hikes?  And is it humid?

Thank you!  Your posts are great and super helpful and answer many questions.  I booked a long time ago and have had back issues since so am a little concerned about the level of activity being ok for me. Also about the altitude. We cruise on June 1. Decided to go to Mindo forest instead of the Quito tour. It’s much lower. 

Thanks @Habenicd. Couple of other questions. No one's live posts have mentioned dry bags. I am using my Iphone 14 so decided not to take camera gear so I don't need it for that purpose. Nor will I kayak. Is it needed?

Also are the beach walks in hard packed sand or is it soft and takes a lot of effort? I know the post office is very soft, but the others?

Fedic, can you comment on whether snorkeling vests are provided by Celebrity (Xpedition). I can swim in deep water but need buoyancy as I cant do it for long. Leaving on 5/30 for the 6/1 cruise.
