These people were soooo interesting. Every corner represents a season and at the base of the stairs is a head of a snake. The triangular ridges up the stairs reresents the body of the snake coming down from heaven to bless ( fertalize) the soil for the coming crops. at jsut the right time of day you can see the shadow of the snake perfectly. They used to let people walk up the stairs but last year a woman fell from half way up and died.
These are on the side of the obervatory. They had all the stars and constilations figured out.
This was the Convent I believe.

Pretty much I am so freakin jealous! Your pictures look so amazing. I would love to hike up to the ancient ruins, see the ziggurats and learn about all that stuff. That might even be funner than the beach. The caves sound really cool too. Where did you guys stay?
yeah you finally posted! I've been missing you!
How pretty. It looks like you had a great time.
we stayed at the flamingo in cancun and just took busses all around.
