...back again to post pics and a little bit about the boys' day at Chichen Itza.

The guys were up nice and early [6am] to hop on a bus by 7:30am. This bus drove them 3 hours away to an all day tour of Chichen Itza/Mayan Ruins/Ik kil Cenote
Their first stop was to Ik Kil Cenote [a giant sinkhole!] that was about 100' below ground surface and after looking it up online it's a sink hole that the boys were jumping into that is about 130' deep! YICKS!

They had about an hour and 15 minutes here at this place to jump in the water, swim, take photos- etc.
It was then lunch time in a building where Aaron says there was some REALLY bad dancing going on. I asking "like strippers.. or..." he said "no... just really bad and really random people dancing & whistling". Then I asked "like belly dancers" he again said, "nope..." :/ yup, sounds pretty random and odd.
After lunch they had their tour of Chichen Itza where they learned a ton of really [from what i seems] neat information! Their tour guide "Paco no Taco" [Aaron gives EVERYONE nicknames- its his way to remember people b/c he knows WAY too many people] was really knowledge, entertaining and spoke really good English- he was easy to understand and told great stories.

And that was about all that I got out of Aaron, so I will share some of the photos that Kyle sent from his camera.

Although all of this looks pretty cool and quite impressive- I was MORE than happy that I didn't go along. This all day tour was just TOO long besides, I would have died in the sinkhole anyway! ;)
See ya tomorrow as we say bye bye [for now] to Mexico...
