Tikal Revisitied - This time with Sunshine!



So we got some sunshine! Walking through the ruins you get a real feel for how old the place is. Trees have grown up through the ruins cracking alters and tipping over structures.



Lots of wildlife as well, I really need to get a cemera with an optical zoom for these pictures.



Once again we climbed the tallest temple in the complex, and here is the view from the top:



Also this time we were able to climb a few of the other temples and get some good pictures



The steps are damn steep!



But defnitely worth the climb.





Lots of oportunities for good photos - if only there was a good photographer around...



And more temples to climb!




More good views:




And onto the main plaza

How many steps was the tallest ruin you climbed? Did you need to take a break or is it all old hat by now? You are really seeing some beautiful sights. Jealous!
