No Travel Day
Temp: 38 degrees C
Sunny, humid & Hot
Went to the ruins today around 10:30. I was expecting “big” but still I was surprised. Massive is more appropriate! It boggles the imagination how such an advanced culture able to rally the work and material to build such a city without modern tools, in the 97% humidity and constant 38 degree temps could come to such a quick grinding halt!
My camera pack it in a third of the way through the ruins so I borrowed Sue’s. Had some really amazing photos. Unfortunately Sue’s camera got accidently re-formatted before we could upload the pics….!
Back there in the morning to try and get more photos.
The local cheese and ham empanadas are wonderful!
