Pictures (I found on several websites)!! I put it together for a presentation on Rapa Nui aka Easter Island in my Spanish class. The song is by a famous group from Rapa Nui called Matato'a. My Spanish Presentation =D La Isla de Pascuaes una de las siete maravillas del mundo y se encuentra en el medio del océano Pacífico. La Isla de Pascua es el lugar más aislado del mundo. La gente que vive en la Isla de Pascua le llama a la isla Rapa Nui. En la isla se encuentran estatuas muy famosas que se llaman "Moai." Algunas estatuas meden más de trainta pies en altura y pesan más de ochenta toneladas. La gente de Rapanui le llamaban a los Moai, "El Rostro Viviente de Los Ancestros Vivientes." Cada estatua fue diferente y elevada, fue erigía que inmortalizara un jefe muerto. El objecto de las estatuas fue para vigilar a la gente, para inspirarlos, y protogerlos. ¡Vivir en la Isla de Pascua es único! Ésta generación de Rapanui ésta bien estructurada, afectuosa, y artística. Los islénos bailan a la música cultural y esulpen arte intrincada. Los caballos recorren libremente la isla. En la isla existe unos de los mejores mariscos. Rapa Nui tiene un grupo de danza y música muy popular se llama "Matato'a." ¡Matato'a son artistas brillantes! Yo fui afortunada a encontrarme con Matato'a durante un festival cultural en American Samoa. Matato'a de Rapanui fue el favorito grupo de toda la gente.
The history of Easter Island is rich and controversial. Its inhabitants have endured famines, epidemics, civil war, slave raids and colonialism, and near deforestation; their population has declined precipitously more than once. They have left a cultural legacy that has brought them fame disproportionate to their population.

Arfur and Shelly Visit an island that they have been wanting to see for many years. An island shrouded in mystery. An island where great heads and bodies carved in volcanic rock stand guard along the coast. Easter Island - home of the Moai. We walk around the base of the 15 Moai at Tongariki relatively quickly, as the island tour groups start to arrive after we parked up (added to the cruise ship passengers that might soon turn up!). The wind was again, quite strong and unfortunately, the sound has drowned out half the commantary....not a bad thing, some might say :) Still at least it was warm.......
