Easter Island Day 2 (Sunday)

Since its my blog I've taken the liberty to include all the "traveling" in Day 1 - and just talk about Sunday evening as day 2. After getting settled in our hotel, ( Picture a sort of tropical garden - with simple rooms - no a/c - no tvs - no internet - somewhat threadbare towels - but a flush toilet and warm shower) we headed out to find some dinner (for all those who think you are missing something not getting food on a domestic flight think again).

We headed to the beach. It was beautiful. Very blue water, warm air, lots of kids out surfing. We found a little place to eat overlooking the water. I ordered some garlic chicken - which was just that - some chicken in a garlic sauce. No sides or anything else. It was pretty good though, espcially once I got a side of rice to go with it. I also had a pisco sour. Different than Peru - it had brown sugar around the top of the glass and no egg component.

After dinner we continued to hike down the coastline from Hanga Roa to Tahai, which consisted of some of the standing Moai. We watched the sunset over the water and then headed in for the night. A shower and a flat place to sleep was awesome!!
