We saw Moai and more today on the Hidden Treasures tour. By the end of the day, we’ve traveled almost all of the paved roads on the island. Only one of the roads had a center stripe.
We visited random ruins, Anakena beach again to see it in a different light, a pink beach, a cave, the quarry again, Ahu Te Pito Kura,and an amazing tide pool.
Tibor really, really wanted to go to the quarry again so that’s where we went for lunch. Tibor walked around the quarry again and Jennifer and I enjoyed lunch. This time I ordered a chicken sandwich and thankfully it wasn’t raw like the fish dishes I’ve ordered!
After the tour, I went shopping and then into the pool to cool down, Tibor went looking for turtles and Jennifer prepared for tomorrow’s travel day.
In the evening we went to a different restaurant overlooking the beach to enjoy another sunset. We got a nice table this time and weren’t too hot and finished dinner in time to wander around and enjoy the nearby Moai by sunset.
Once again a meal ordered didn’t match expectations. I ordered salad and calamari expecting the calamari to be breaded and fried. Instead the calamari came just barely seared. It was super fresh and well prepared- it just wasn’t what I expected. It’s a shame I don’t care for such fresh seafood since I’m sure it was delicious. Tibor enjoyed another meal out of it and I did enjoy my salad.
