| We met a bunch of German tourists led by Hermann (with the red hat). I like these two pictures—the juxtaposition between mere mortals of flesh and blood and immortal icons of solid rock. The tourists visited the site for perhaps 30 minutes but the moai have been there for centuries—and will still be there thousands of years from now. | ||
