olb / DoL - Aberdyfi

Late afternoon and a trip to Aberdyfi - There are some very good "artisan" ice-cream sellers here. Took this image of the RNLI and sailing club building whilst eating some chips and planning where to buy the best ice-cream afterwards. Aberdyfi RNLI - Since 1998 the station had operated an Atlantic 75-class inshore lifeboat, RNLB "Sandwell Lifeline" (B-758), launched by tractor down the ramp to the right. In 2016 this was replaced by an Atlantic 85 "Hugh Miles" (B-896). [on a visit in 2021 - buying ice-cream again, the sailing club half of the building was obscured by scaffolding]

Chile - Easter Island, Ahu Vai Uri

Easter Island - or Rapa Nui as the locals call their island - is well known for its moai, the great carved stone statues staring stonily across the island’s barren hills. The islanders used stone tools to carve a statue out of volcanic tuff. The statues were secured by bark rope attached to tree trunk capstans at the top of the ‘moai factory’. Then they were lowered down the slope into pits where, upstanding right, they were carved in the familiar shape. From there they were transported over the island to their final resting places. Each statue was carved to represent a specific deified ancestor - "moai" means “for the progeny” or “for the descendants” - that’s why there are no two statues alike. There are almost 900 "moai" recorded on Rapa Nui; almost 400 still in the quarry, between 164 and 288 on an "ahu" (a raised rectangular platform used as a place of worship) and 200 remain on the spot were they fell or were left during transport. The average "moai" weighs 12,5 tons and stands 4 metres high. Ahu Vai Uri is part of the Tahai Ceremonial Complex. The Ahu Vai Uri, whose name could be translated as “dark water” or “green water” is the platform with the largest number of erected statues. Its construction dates from 1200 AD. Its five restored moai are a sample of the different styles of how they were carved.

Nederland - Diever, hunebed D52

Dolmen D52 - just outside the village of Diever - is a medium-sized dolmen. It has fourteen sidestones and two closing endstones. From the original seven capstones six are still present. One is missing and of the remaing six, three still supported on their sidestones, the other three having slipped between theirs. Dolmen D52 is 14.5 meters long and 4.8 meters wide. Dolmen D52 is already mentioned in the 17th century and is depicted on the French maps. At the time of a big survey by Prof. Van Giffen (1918) the dolmen was a total ruin. Under his supervision this hunebed has been thoroughly restored in 1953/54. In 1995 restoration works were still performed to this dolmen.
