The terrain here is very green with rolling hills, quite different than the north. Chetumal was not very picturesque but we enjoyed it. There was a great Mayan culture museum and good food. The last 2 days we have visited 4 different ruins, all in gorgeous jungle settings. The most magnificent was Becan where we were alone except for a family that was leaving as we were coming in and later, a mother and daughter. Tomorrow is a 2.5 hour drive each way, on a bad road to Calakmul.

Tallest building at Becan - we climbed it (there was a rope) |

Mom and Dad, These ruins look awesome. Maybe we'll plan on staying down an extra week in 2 years! That rope you used to climb up .... I wonder how many years it has been there.
ReplyDeleteOn another topic, I tried to post about 25 photos from our recent extravaganza in Puerto Morelos, but I confused the blog. I'll try again tomorrow.
Beautiful! It looked as if the rope did not go all the way to the bottom.
ReplyDeleteAlso, what is it tied to at the top? A Stella?
