In March of this year, I went to Chile.

For this country, the deepest impression is the Easter Island, it was a magical place.


Easter Island


Initial impression: tanned people

>

Departure from Santiago, after a 5 hour flight, behind the coastline was drowned in the sea and clouds, the aircraft had been to the West, toward the Pacific's hinterland-Easter Island.

The locals are tanned skin, let me good health admiration. Short street, hotel, restaurant, shop, and soon to the head. Turned the corner to the far side of the sea, and saw a very nostalgic yellow buses, so some uncertain at the moment.

Waves in Black Rock, great sound issued from time to time, is becoming increasingly fierce, the Sun makes my Flash some dizziness.

At this time, I saw the MOAI (comoe stone). This is what I see for the first group, the local people call the stone MOAI. Many years ago, I saw in magazines such scenes, astonished. Just then I never dreamed that one day, you can think of it. Sunset, although the thick clouds, but the Sun or in the fall to vanity and some before, so that orders the 5 add many vivid MOAI statues. I watched the sunset of the West, the vast Pacific Ocean, to the West, North, West, East, far away from home. The most special stone: correcting the splendor of the magnificent evening dinner, compared to Santiago, the same things about a couple of times as expensive, it tasted bad.

Rent a car cheapest SAMURAL, small, or 4 drives.

Hurry up, and didn't think to do international driver's license. Car girl looked at me and handed over the car, there is absolutely no doubt mdash mdash;; you know, domestic license does not have any English words, that is, you can give her any country of the card, the temporary residence permit, the canteen meal card yibaoka, as long as there is a photograph, OK!

The island has a highway, the more of a gravel road.

Rings island for a week about 50 km, continuous open nearly 2 hours. Many are open to the sea, couldn't stop. See figure around, was a car privately, red, seawater roll up a few flowers gorgeous whirlpool. Hot head, or sunset West, I was one of the ends of the Earth Gallery corner, quietly watching time resides.


The statue stands


The most northern island, a beautiful beach.

I think my ideal: coconut trees, azure, a knowing smile. Behind the beach, is a small Habitat, with half length of weeds. Aimless walk, a turn, they saw a picture of a singularly impressive. In I have ever seen, this is the MOAI is the most special one. The vast majority of MOAI, the face is long, but this looks good, the square. Although it is a stand alone, but face South and back north, a pair of spirit reigns. At this time, four miles quietly so that even the wind seems to have temporarily stalled. It must be acknowledged that Flash does have a unique power to shock me. Let me not to describe. Sunset, not distant 7 statue in the Sun reflects a pair of moving pictures.

Most impressive: this is a magical place on the last day of the morning, more than half an hour to the Northeast at the foot of the island.

The sky is darkest before the dawn, the head of the Galaxy twinkling differencebetween several constellations. Four darker, not far away to see one or two road I walk hand electro-optic, and there was light fine vocals. Eastern white clouds on the sea level or, as always, thick. For how many left two photos, I had to use some of the effects of processing on the camera. For never true digital photos, this is nothing to be ashamed of, says my consolation. In fact is indifferent, a few miles away, in the end is not to shoot some photos. He left to his wife sent a postcard, not quite sure what to write, pen tip to the paper, was a most of these days I get used to the language of nature revealed. Effect: this is an incredible place, I never thought that one day will be here, but I come; at this moment, I still feel it difficult to believe. Very grateful for his wife, gave me a lot of support and encouragement, and not limited to Chile.

Easter Island, aliens called EASTERISLAND, local people called the RAPANUI, literal translation of the navel of the world, I prefer another translation: the end of the Earth.

If I can describe a beautiful one-tenth of the island, the pleasure is all mine, or it's unfortunate.
