Today we did a morning tour.

I wasn’t really sure I wanted to go on a tour, but by the time I woke up I was already in a bag and voices in spanish and english could be heard.  I guess I was going on a tour.

Our first stop was Ana Kai Tangata, one of the hundreds of caves littered around the island.

This cave was extra special.

First it was a ceremonial cave.  The cave walls were lined with petroglyphs that were painted using shark oil and clay.  That’s hardcore.

Second during the dark period some tribe folk would hide in this cave and hunt down passing humans.

And eat them.

Nicholas tried to tell me that bears eat humans too.  One swift smack later, he remembered that spirit bears are a hot cocoa and chocolate consuming kind of bear. Cannibalism and human eating just sounds all too messy.
