In case you missed my first, second, third, fourth, and fifth stops on the island, click here, here, here, here, and here. Before we arrived at Alicia’s favorite place, we stopped at yet another place with a backdrop so beautiful it looked as though someone had painted it. I think this is the first destination I have ever visited where no photo editing was needed to retouch my pictures!
And finally a picture of my gorgeous tour guide Alicia on the volcanic rocks:
About a half a mile away was Alicia’s favorite place, or should I say stone? The Rapa Nui have sacred spots all over the island, the majority are unknown to outsiders. The one that she had taken me to is the most famous and is a stop on all tours. Even though countless people visit it on a daily basis, as previously mentioned, it is Alicia’s favorite place. You are supposed to connect with the energy of the stone with your hands and once you are able to feel it you are to make a wish and then touch the stone. She swears that every single wish she has made has come true. With those odds I had to try it out for myself!
I will let you know in about four months if my wish came true of not! Then it was on to the final stop of the tour. . .
sending you warm your-wish-will-come-true thoughts! gorgeous photos. and your site looks fab! 🙂
Wow, looks incredible! The 4th photo down makes me want to go there tomorrow… err tonight!

I believe your wish WILL come true!!!! I want to wish on that stone, I could use that kind of “luck”.
Very cool. Anxious to hear what you wished for. Kirsten, we can make a trip down together to make wishes 🙂
Well, I have an idea what your wish has to do with because of the timing, but the possibilities are endless =) may it come true!
You look so pretty and happy in the second picture of this post – you can see how much you were loving your day. And I too hope your wish will come true, although considering what’s happening 4ish months from now, I feel pretty confident that it will.
I love that there are so many sacred spots on the island. Very cool.
I knew about the statues but not about the sacred spots. Interesting. Beautiful pictures!!!
Good capture…….
Hope you had good enjoy during your trip.Your wish also come true.Really a nice place i have to visit it soon in Future.
With love
Johny
Let me know when ur wish comes true. I’m so going there and wishing I win the mega million in NY 😛 heehee
You guys look so pretty!
I hope th wish comes true. I had similar experience in Galicia, the north of Spain. Touching wasn’t enough though, you had to lie down on the stone. Beautiful pictures.
Great photos! Hope the wish comes true!
Here’s wishing your wish comes true 🙂
How do you look so fabulous on a remote island? 🙂

Andi, one question!
did u go by plane to easter island? from chile?or how? i am from europe and was thinking of going to brasil argentina and uruguay, but now i wanna get to easter island too! and i wanna know if i can find a quick easy and not costing a fortune, posibility to get there from chile let s say.
Thanks!
Yes, plane from Santiago! Unfortunately, getting to Easter Island is neither quick, easy, nor cheap. It’s one of those destinations that you have to save and plane in advance for!
