[Saint Greg]

Sacred tree of the mayas
 

[Saint Greg]

And we walk

This area is naturally flat so all of the mounds we see in this area are Mayan structures that have not been excavated.

 

This is a temple that has not be excavated

[Saint Greg]

There are two ways up to the plaza. This is 13 steps which our guide calls the smart way. And around the corner 32 steps which she calls the adventurous way. Which way do you think I’m going?
 

 

[Saint Greg]

The adventurous way.
 

[Saint Greg]

That looks like a broken stela

 

[Saint Greg]

 

[Saint Greg]

You do have to go down a few steps to get over to where the others came up
 

[Saint Greg]

 

[Saint Greg]

So if you came the other way you go up these steps to the next temple.

They do have benches up here if you want to take a break.

[Saint Greg]

This is a bit treacherous. My group didn’t do it so I’m doing this on my own.

With all those steps and walking, I'd need an entire bed on which to rest instead of sitting on a bench.

[Saint Greg]

[Saint Greg]

Okay my group is gone. I need to ketchup.

Going down the smart way.

 

[Saint Greg]

I see our guide up ahead.

[Saint Greg]

This is a housing development.
 

[Saint Greg]

Like I was saying yesterday you just see the foundations of these houses because that’s all that was made out of stone. We are standing by the back part of houses.
 

10 people lived in each house.
