I have to say i teared up at those sunrise shots. I cant imagine how it felt to witness it in person. And i know it must have looked so much more vibrant than on video! Rapa nui must have been one of the most expensive legs of the trip so far, at least in trave l costs - am i right? Thr lamdscape reminds me of new zealand mixed with hawaii. That polynesian triangle! Enjoy the rest of the trip! (A new subscriber!)
Hi!! Thank you thank you thank you for your comment! It is literally so nice. I think I teared up too watching the sunrise! It was one of the biggest highlights of anything I've ever seen haha (the quarry was too!) We recently just got to go to Hawaii with Curts grandmother (who absolutely loves it there) and it was my first time! I definitely see what you mean landscape wise and hopefully I'll be able to check out New Zealand as well. Since we were already going to be in Santiago, the flights to get in to Rapa Nui weren't so bad round-trip but if we were coming out of country and had a strict timeline it would have been waaaaay too much. A day or two difference meant hundreds of dollars different. We also got to stay at a really basic hostal that was fantastic price wise (but would have been cheaper elsewhere 😆) and we ate pasta for our big meal every day haha. So somehow we managed to keep the prices lower than we were prepared for. But yeah the whole leg of the trip cost much more than some others 😆😆
