Can Easter Island’s cultural gems be moved to save them from the ravages of climate change? “Yes, but you lose their context, you lose their history when doing that.” http://nyti.ms/2FLuQWN pic.twitter.com/x1aAjg24ks

Too funny, climate change or should I say what it use to be called "global warming" but that term didn't work out too well for these money grubbing frauds. What a bunch of garbage.

I spent my 50th birthday there. It's a really cool, slightly weird place.

Oh David I'M JEALOUS! Yeah and I'm also obsessed with the Moi. May I ask what your favorite sculptures were or what area to be sure and visit?

I split the cost of a one day rental car with someone else at the hotel. That made all the difference. We got to pretty much all the road accessible places. The next day I just walked up the the beach and along the cliffs. Gorgeous place.pic.twitter.com/YkjtsIqawO

OMG David are these your pics? My favorite Moi is the one facing left on your first pic. That's the one I'm going to try and replicate in concrete. These sculptures and the known history are just remarkable.

It's just an incredible, unique place.

I must go before it's gone. Thanks for sharing David.

Happy to. I'll send a few more photos when I get the chance.
