Our Second Day Exploring Tikal
Todays target was to climb the
hundreds of wooden stairs to get to the top of Temple Four to get the best view over Tikal. The noise
from the howler monkeys was incredible.
I was thrilled to get to the top for
a sit down. Had to get tourist
shots if only to prove we did
it.
Back down at ground level we bimbled through the trees, well maintained tracks are
easy to follow by map and Bear was in charge of deciding where to
explore.
He did take us off
the beaten path every so often.
Bear was dwarfed by this massive Ceiba tree.
Trees and
monkeys everywhere.
We headed back to the main area and
watched in horror as this man ‘waggled’ on the
scaffolding.
We looked at the altars and stelae.
Our final look at this
impressive monument.
ALL IN ALL A VERY SPECIAL
PLACE
VAST, MAJESTIC AND NOT TO BE
