Joe817 Posted December 8, 2021 #1129 Share Posted December 8, 2021 Those are some great pics Greg! 👍 Those ruins beat the heck out of not only Altun Ha, but also Coba for sure. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Saint Greg Posted December 8, 2021 Author #1130 Share Posted December 8, 2021 Around the back side is a higher level you used to be able to go to but not any more do to covid. The guide seemed to think it was a bunch of bologna sandwiches. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Saint Greg Posted December 8, 2021 Author #1131 Share Posted December 8, 2021 (edited) This is where you would come down from that higher level when they allowed it. the Mayans had not mastered arched doorways yet.

Rare Saint Greg Posted December 8, 2021 Author #1135 Share Posted December 8, 2021 This is the stairs you come down from. I wanted to get a picture with nobody on them. See the Brady’s up top conducting a photo shoot. 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most people are creatures of habit and would pick the same seats. But some like to swim upstream similar to the carpet on NCL and go against the flow.

Rare Saint Greg Posted December 8, 2021 Author #1138 Share Posted December 8, 2021 I took some angled pictures that just didn’t show the staircase 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Saint Greg Posted December 8, 2021 Author #1139 Share Posted December 8, 2021 (edited) This guy in the regular blue shirt I thought he and his wife were also waiting to get the stairs with nobody on them. When he walked over i thought he was going to help the older lady trying to get down. Nope he was getting in position to be in a photo once she cleared. But here come the Brady’s again running up the hill for more pictures. Edited December 8, 2021 by Saint Greg 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Saint Greg Posted December 8, 2021 Author #1142 Share Posted December 8, 2021 I also missed what he said about the hall court but this is the worst Mayan ballcourt I’ve seen. If you saw my Lamanai and coba pictures you know what I’m talking about. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Saint Greg Posted December 8, 2021 Author #1143 Share Posted December 8, 2021 They found a 65 year old female buried in this one. The broken stela out front is believed to be where her story would be found. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Saint Greg Posted December 8, 2021 Author #1144 Share Posted December 8, 2021 This stone was brought from another city as a trophy and its believe the 65 year old lady was the one who brought it. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Saint Greg Posted December 8, 2021 Author #1146 Share Posted December 8, 2021 They called that the end of the tour to get us back In tIme but I know there’s something else on the other side of the kings (not Elvis) house so I climbed up to take a peek. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKR2011 Posted December 8, 2021 #1147 Share Posted December 8, 2021 (edited) Great shots of the ruins! We went to some while visiting NCL's private island in Belize. A long ferry ride followed by a long bus ride for some not so impressive ruins like this "ball court." They didn't get much better. Yours remind me more of the ones I've seen in Costa Maya. Much more impressive! Edited December 8, 2021 by AKR2011 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Saint Greg Posted December 8, 2021 Author #1148 Share Posted December 8, 2021 This is looking back at the structure with the stairs on both sides and then the main temple while standing on the king’s (not Elvis) house. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
