Escape from Easter Island!

Hurrah! We made it... flight delayed by 7 hours, but we made it off the island (i have since had nightmares of being stranded on eater island)... and thanks to a mix up with the seating, we were upgraded to business class, and wow, that's how the other half live. Fillet steak, choices of fine reserve wines, gourmet foods, champagne, seats that turn into proper beds... just amazing really!

We were like kids when we were upgraded, playing with the seats and taking pictures of ourselves. But horror struck when we landed, poor Yersin (Celine's pet turtle) had disappeared! Where could he have crawled off to? After we landed in Santiago, we had to call in the engineer to dismantle the seat, and find poor Yersin who had fallen behind in the workings. It was an emotional but happy moment when Celine and Yersin were reunited.
