I didn’t have to travel far to see this Easter Island statue. In fact it was the first of several replicas I saw in this downtown neighbourhood. I had to smile when I saw it peering over the grass as I approached the house.

It looks a wee bit out of place here – even a little disgruntled 🙂

It’s so small. Maybe it’s one of the Long Ears’ children?

These human figures known as Moai were carved by the Rapa Nui people on Easter Island between 1250 and 1500 AD. The originals are 4-10 metres tall!

Yes, I read the book “Easter Island” and was fascinated by the size of those monuments.

I bet Thor Heyerdahl was blown away when he first saw that. Sorry – I got the title of the book wrong. It was called Aku-Aku, but was about Easter Island.

It was a reading side trip I took after reading The Kon-Tiki Expedition way back when I was in grade seven and it was “required reading” that year.
