Tikal, Guatemala

Posted by scott in Leg 2, tags: Archaeology, Belize, Central America, Guatemala, Maya civilization, Social Sciences, Spider monkey, Tikal

Took the bus to Tikal this morning. What an amazing place. Lot’s of Mayan buildings along with plenty of wildlife. Saw a lot of spider monkeys in the trees but they move fast and stay high up so it was hard getting a picture.

Not sure if I’m going to stay here tomorrow or not. My legs are a little sore from all the climbing today. I also need to find someone to fix the zipper on my new shorts. Remind me never to buy clothes in Belize again.
