Easter Island - Video

Parting Shots of Easter Island

Looking back on Easter Island I figured that there were at least a few more shots to post. I loved my time there and with any luck I will make it back someday.


The food

The beach

The friends (that don't speak English)


The sweet ride (yes mother I wore a helmet) and I did get it up to 90km/h



And with roads that look like this, how could you not miss it.

More Pics: Easter Island

I have so many pictures from this amazing island that I have to post some more. This is a picture of the only seven Moai that face out toward the sea.


I also have been spending a lot of time at the beach. Notice the wet hair. Of course I had to get in the water.

At the end of the first day the owners celebrated their 21st wedding anniversary. All were invited for free food and drink. It has been great staying here.

The next morining I ventured to the end of the island to view the dormant volcanoe that is now filled by water. Many ceremonies were conducted here including the Birdman. Look it up for yourself, because my time is short online here.

Easter Island... Shots of Big Heads

I am now on the Isla de Pascua... or Easter Island... or Rapa Nui... OK so there are a lot of names, but there are even more Moai (AKA Giant Heads). I will save the history lesson. Just check out http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Easter_Island for all your needs.

When the Island was discovered all of the heads had been toppled. There are different theories for this, but some of the heads have since been propped back up to their rightful place.

I have taken a ton of pictures. Most of which don´t have me in it, but this is my website so I am in the photos. They should all be posted when I make it home, or on my facebook when I get the chance.


Me with a toppled Moai

They are quite abundant

Look like any of your relatives?

They are quite a sight to behold

I think I fit in fine right here. This trip has been amazing thus far. I have tons of picutures, but upload times are horrible... plus the beach is calling me. The sun is shining and the water was great yesterday. Wash, Rinse, Repeat. Back to Santiago on Thursday.

Flying to Easter Island

So I packed up and headed out to Easter Island 2 days ago. I am trying to post some pictures, but the internet cafe here apparently has all images blocked so I don´t know if they are up or not. The final pic will be of my current digs here on Easter Island

Easter Island Bound

I just finished packing my bags for EASTER ISLAND! It was by no means on the itinerary, but then again I travel without a watch or any sort of alarm so I might as well live in the moment. I am planning on just going until Thursday before flying back to see some more of Santiago.

I am leaving some stuff here for my trip so the pack is much lighter than it was before.


Got my electronics still and my travel book... I should be fine.

It will be hard to move back into hostel life after staying here though because my friend Cami's house is amazing.

Here is a view of the back garden.

Wish me luck on my trip, I love hearing from everyone. Either in comments or at jonnywalks@gmail.com.
