An extinct volcano that became fertile land. Home to plants and animals below sea level; Bees, pink pineapples, and bananas. Oh, how the Earth transforms and changes over the ages. Around the corner is Petroglifos Rano Kau. A stone carved symbol of the bird man who was inhabited the island that we came to know as “Easter Island.” Where did all the trees go on this island, and how did they carve such large structures in the shapes of human forms? That is the great mystery of this small and remote island. An ancient unknown. With only glyphs and statues that litter the island of a lasting legacy of those who dwelled once before, and the families of them who still remain.
