"It's the End of the World As We Know It"

Well, what do you know? It's December 21 and we're still here!  While in Tikal we asked if the gods would please hold off on the whole "ending the world" thing for a few thousand years.  Guess they agreed, your welcome.  Ha, well in any case, our trip to Tikal was pretty amazing.  You don't realize how huge some of these temples are until you are there.  To think it was all done by hand thousands of years ago is mind blowing! (unless you subscribe to the alien assistance theory) We spent 8 hours in the park walking around, under and over some of these structures and took some fabulous photos of the monuments and a few animal friends....take a look and see for yourself!

 Derek thought it would be funny to give me a "temple hat."

                                  On top of Temple IV...the tallest in the complex.  You can see for miles!
