Tikal

HELLO BLOG-O-SPHERE!!!

Today is the first day I've been able to post from a real computer instead of my DS, and it's a good day to do so as well. Today Adam and I crossed the border into Guatemala and went on a tour of Tikal, the largest Mayan ruins site in the area. To say this experience was breath-taking simply wouldn't do it justice. We saw some of the most incredible man-made structures I've ever seen in my life, some big enough to rival the Egyptian Pyramids. We also came across some very cool wildlife will in the park, including a couple different types of spiders, and two different types of monkeys (spider and howler). I've been trying to upload a couple photos for about 15 minutes now with no luck, and can't handle it anymore. We're going to go get some dinner now and check out this crazy festival going on in a village up the road called Succotz. I'll try again with some pictures later tonight if I have time. If not, maybe there will be a better internet connection at the Belizian Shores Resort, which we head to tomorrow.

I can't believe the trip is half over. It seems like we just got here.

Until later,

Ryan
