We'd booked three full days (four nights) on Easter Island, since that's what all the guide books recommended and we were also worried that if we had a day of poor weather then we might not have had enough time. However we are generally pretty quick as far as sightseeing goes, so in retrospect we really only needed two full days.
In the morning M did the walk up to Orongo while K enjoyed the veranda and the garden back at the hostel. There was a bit of drizzle but it wasn't cold, so it was good walking weather. The path up the volcano was interesting, it was almost a straight line up to the first mirador (lookout), then followed the rim of the crater around to Orongo.
There's that crater again |
This guy looks a little sad |
The place we were staying at was further out of town than we liked, up to an hour's round trip to the main part of town, which became a bit tiring after three days. We decided we'd revisit the restaurant that was closest to our hostel, which fortunately also had probably the best food and atmosphere of all the ones we'd tried.
