On our way back from Cancun we stopped at Ek Balan a ruin site and X-Canache a cenote. Breathtaking!

The Mayans know how to build!

yes you can even climb some of them yourselves.  be careful though as they are steep, dizzying and the rise and run is not to any standard of measurement I know of.

Carvings recently uncovered

A sorceress!

What a view of the canopy! Note the cell tower in the background.

Off to the cenote....you can walk the 2 km, rent a bike or be ridden.

The ropes are actually roots from the surrounding vegetation.  You can zip line across the top and rappel down.

Turned a sad day of dropping the kids off at the airport to a fun day.
