Tikal Revisitied - This time with Sunshine!

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.

Broken alter

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

Toucan

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

View from temple

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

Climb

The steps are damn steep!

Steps down

But defnitely worth the climb.

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

Nice frame

And more temples to climb!

More good views:

And onto the main plaza

Also photographed that day

4 more frames from 19 February 2007 that never made it into the post.

    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!
