No Moai – Just Views

When you visit Easter Island, the first thing that comes to mind is the Moai. Moai, Moai everywhere. And correct – they are. I saw them at sunrise, I saw them at sunset. I explored the creation grounds and I wandered among toppled Moai. I felt energy expelling from some of the Moai and sat at a magnetic rock. I had done almost everything I could do with the Moai. So I decided it was time to see Easter ISLAND and not just their token attribute. It was time to go horseback riding.

Photo Diary: Easter Island, Chile

What an incredible island. The experience of the island comes from more than the Moai. It comes from the people and their passion for their culture and traditions.
