Xunantunich - Part One

Have you ever crossed a river on a handcrank ferry? Have you ever seen a tree filled with iguanas? Have you ever visited an ancient Mayan ruin and climbed to the very tip top? Well, our group of intrepid travelers did all these and more on Tuesday morning. It was so neat seeing their wide eyed wonder as we walked up to the ancient ruins at Xunantunich. They listened attentively to our guide, they asked great questions, they saw so much, they learned a lot, and most importantly, they safely made it down from the top of El Castillo. What a wonderful way for us all to learn about Mayan history, archeology, and the history of Belize.
