Just to mumble ‘goodbye’. I reckon I won’t ever return to Easter Island. Infested with tourists like me, there are still some genuine things there.
My experience wouldn’t have been as special if I didn’t meet the people I met. Social relationships are, indeed, more important than the environment or the place.
Last days were specially intense and happy. 9 days evaporated. If sometime I return to Easter, I’m sure it won’t ever be the same. It can be better, can be worse, but never the same perspective… too many unique moments.

¡Adiós, Pascua!

Oh! And goodbyes in the airport, to Jean-François [be], Aaron and Cynthia. Kathy and I, exhausted, waving behind the grille. Dramatism starts as a joke, but then it grows realistic. Rest.

With Cynthia to Anakena (where we baptized Ralph). Then, at night, with Marina [cl], we slipped into a wedding. We met there Kathy. As everybody was drunk, there was no problem and our intrusion was ignored… everything was perfectly distorted thanks to ‘piscola’. Then Aaron, Giulio and Marc [nl] appeared.
After all that, the rest of us standing ended in Orongo, beholding the dawn, after having some rest. I blame my happiness and subsequent pain to that hugs. Bidding Anakena farewell.

Samurai! And trekking, and making pictures. Good tour, with Kathy, Aaron and Giulio. I’m the designated driver, in a non-alcoholic way. We arrive late to Hanga Roa and to our appointment with Cynthia. Night at Anakena, bonfire included… short and intense. And confusing.
That night… we talked about life, love, and other miseries.

D Of scuba and scopetta

Scuba diving with Kathy, where we meet, among others, Cynthia [cl]. Then, again to the beach, and musical deliria in some rapa nui’s home. Sunset with stoners, and back to the hostel… to enjoy a classic: scopetta, in a non-homosexual way. Nevertheless, we played with the spanish rules (more interesting), so it would be more accurate to say ‘escoba‘.

D Beach & Ahu Tahai

To the museum, and then Ahu Tahai. We end up in a small and seductive beach. As seductive as Kathy [cl], whom we meet there. And we talk, talk, talk until the sunset.
Night brings some nonsense. Taxi-loving Giulio and his failure… Bruce Douglas (worst/finest scotch whisky ever) appearing, appealing. Cat-bowling, sounds more cruel than it is (actually it was just an experiment on animal behaviour), but karma will make us pay (I would have been happy to be the cat, though).

Not much. Foosball (futbolín in Spain, taca-taca in Chile, metegol in Argentina, calzo balilla in Italy, et cetera). Beers in the harbour, at night, before the haka appeared.

Walking to the crater, through random paths. With Giulio [it], meeting rock-obsessed (literally) Brian [us] in the way. The strange hospitality of ‘Indio’ Hernán Cortes and his family, in a cottage near the crater. And his attractive niece of undefinable age.

For 9 days I guess I won’t write at all, considering the 6USD per hour (or more) you have to pay to access Internet in Easter Island. Will update it at my return, though. Expect better pictures than the last week :P.
