Mataveri International Airport

Otherwise known as Rapa Nui Airport, or Easter Island Airport or even Isla de Pascua Airport this is the most remote airfield in the world. Upon being met you are given a most beautiful necklace of typical flowers to welcome you to Rapa Nui.

Met promptly at the airport and adorned with our necklace of flowers, we were taken to our hotel, Altiplanico, room is quite basic, there’s no fridge or air conditioning, we have an open air shower and a floor level bed, which will be fun during the night journeys! It’s very like the place we stayed in St Vincent’s really so no great surprises

After settling in we went for a swim and just relax after our early start and journey. We came back to our ‘hut’ about 2 hours later for a snooze, when we woke we realised that we only just avoided sunburn, we’re both very red and aware so on goes the Aloe Vera and loads of water

When we went for dinner George, barman and waiter etc, told us it’s important to put on sun cream day and night and even when raining

Funny thing that somewhere you always find someone with their Willy hanging out!Baca lagi
