The Adventure Life on Easter Island!

The Adventure Life begins again!
Meyers and I are off on another life-changing adventure and we are way excited. Unfortunately, I am 3 weeks post-surgery and a tiny bit grumpy but that is not going to stop me :-)
Over the past several days, Meyers and I have reconnected after several months apart. We have been reminiscing about our AL …

Looooong plane ride overnight and a long travel day but we are finally in Chile!! Pretty beat but Adventure Life was right on time for our hotel transfer. Arrived at the hotel and crashed on the couch for three hours. Sharon said I snored so loud that people kept coming down the stairs and around the corner to see what the heck was making …

Slept great-Early wake-up this morning. Probably woke up the entire 'Petite Hotel' with the creaking floors--had a great laugh! Off to airport and Easter Island. We are very excited! Sharon is feeling revitalized after Starbucks.
Arrived on Easter Island at 1pm. Freider, our local guide, came to pick us up--seems like a great guy. As soon …

Sharon & Meyers--
Happy Xmas Eve!!
Back from our full day excursion with Freider waiting for our next great meal at the seafood joint. Watching the waves crash on the rocks, breeze blowing, the smell of the ocean-breath-taking. The sun is preparing to hide away, spilling its last few rays on the crystal clear water. So quiet and peaceful. …

Meyers & Sharon--
Merry Xmas!!
The church was beautiful last night! Sharon and I went to the courtyard, knelt and prayed. Each his/her own prayers. Was special for me. I asked God to bless us and watch over us all our lives. I asked for peace, joy and simplicity.
Slept in after our long night then headed into town for a Christmas lunch. Low key …

Woke up with big post-xmas headaches..quite dehydrated. Freider picked us up and we gave him a little Christmas gift and am exceptional evaluation. He was the PERFECT guide for us. Full of information, and extremely passionate about the Rapa Nui culture and the island. He continually asked tourists to stay off of the ruins and …

Sharon & Meyers--
Last morning on Easter Island..we are both very sad to leave this incredible island...we could live here :-)
We jumped on the 4 wheeler and headed into town. Filled up the tank and returned our little automobile. Ran into Freider while we were waiting for the pharmacy to open. He was on his way to meet his next couple eager to …

I had the wonderful experience of waking up to Sharon picking sunburned skin from my forehead!! What a truly wonderful wakeup experience AND she wouldn't stop until her pick quota was full for the morning. Gotta love her!! It was too funny and we both laughed hysterically! I definately learned my sun screen lesson: Use it or get …

MEYERS' FINAL THOUGHTS:
This has been a wonderful trip, to say the least, but a bit more expensive than I had thought. Wonderful overall! Rapa Nui is a truly magical and mysterious culture. Most likely the history and culture of the Island will never be understood fully. Shrouded by hundreds of years of hypotheses...but no definitive proof. Easter …
