Return to album listEaster Island – Day 2 (Rano Kau and Orongo)
Strong surf in the morning
|
The edge of the dormant volcano – our destination of the day.
|
Some locals out having fun
|
Amy’s favorite part of the day: a nice seasaw complete with turtle seats. We rode it.
|
Half way up the volcano we happened upon a rest station. Much-needed as we are wimps.
|
Made it to the top of Rano Kao
|
The crater or Rano Kau
|
|
Looking back towards Hanga Roa
|
|
The restored ceremonial village of Orongo which is on the rim of the volcano.
|
The nearby islets of Moto Nui, Moto Iti and Motu Kau Kau
|
Awesome petroglyphs at Orongo
