Shrunken heads

One of my biggest regrets (and a downside of our laissez-faire attitude towards forward planning) is that I didn't realise we could have stopped off at Rapa Nui/Easter Island, halfway between NZ and Chile. Those of you who know what a tacky Tiki nut I am will realise the severity of this oversight. Doh!
Luckily for me there is an archeological museum in Vina Del Mar, a nearby beach town, dedicated to Rapa Nui and other Chilean indiginous cultures. I stopped kicking myself for a minute to have my picture taken in front of a gen-u-ine Maui (tiki head megalith) imported from Rapa Nui, and the boys were intrigued and repulsed in equal measure by the shrunken heads exhibit, which included step-by-step instructions on how it was done.
Already now planning a Polynesian trip for the near future...
