Flores & TIkal

We were both held up for a few days after accidentally drinking some of the water; ended up staying in the room reading and sleeping. Finally we were able to go to Tikal, one of the bigger Mayan ruins. This one was different than the others in the fact that it was more spread out and in the middle of the jungle. In its time the jungle was cleared, but now it was overgrown with little paths throughout. Again I think I gained more enjoyment just walking through the forest and admiring the flora. We were also able to spot a few more monkeys. Near one of the ruins, there was a large group of locals who were doing a religious ceremony, and that was really interesting to watch.
