Rapa Nui/Isla De Pascua/Easter Island

In 2008 we stopped off here on our way from Australia to the Galapagos.We enjoyed our stay at the Taur'aa hotel.Of course we all think of the moai which are impressive.


There is to me a rugged beauty to the place.This is at the harbour.But pick the strong and silent one-

And there is always something happening-

Then there is street food Rapa Nui style-

And the CBD-

 

The quarry-


Carved out of the cliff

View from the quarry-

rugged coastline-

Fortunately the rain waited until we were leaving-

 

Thanks for posting. Brings back memories of my trip.

 

These photos are great. I enjoyed my trip there, and these brought me nice memories, as they did for kiwi.
