AlternateRoute

Today is Day 4 of the 5 day tour and is a “day at leisure”. The sea is too rough to go diving, hiring a car would see us driving to places we have already been and we have visited at least ¾ of the shops in the village. There is not a lot to do but sit around in the sun/shade and read. This is very relaxing but has an underlying feeling of constriction.

Day 5 of the tour is ‘Depart Easter Island’, but since the flight is at 2130 (pickup at 1900), it is another free day. I still have 400 pages of a new book to finish but Sue is down to 200 or less on hers. Although there are a wide variety of stone statues for sale in the shops and the local supermarket has such obscure items as Bart Simpson masks and Spiderman costumes, books seem few and far between. The only available ones are about Easter Island. The next 36 hours could prove to be excruciatingly slow.
