Swimming okay or not okay? Fountains in the in hotel lobby and walkways. I haven’t seen anyone swimming inthem. But my thought was it would be a great spot for a swim up bar and swimout rooms 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Saint Greg Posted June 25, 2021 Author #954 Share Posted June 25, 2021 Man that was disappointing. No climbing the big temple anymore. One guy told me it was due to COVID. The guy on the way out told me they stopped it 5 years ago. I don’t know what the truth is on it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Saint Greg Posted June 25, 2021 Author #955 Share Posted June 25, 2021 80 pesos for a ticket. There are a bunch of tour guides wanting you to hire them. At this point it’s 11:30 and I heard there’s a 1pm bus and a 3pm bus so I want to try for 1pm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Saint Greg Posted June 25, 2021 Author #957 Share Posted June 25, 2021 (edited) I did not realize how big this is. The entire thing was 70kms. 55k Mayans lived in the area. The area we’re looking it is a KM or two. Edited June 25, 2021 by Saint Greg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Saint Greg Posted June 25, 2021 Author #963 Share Posted June 25, 2021 This is when I realized I was in deep doo doo and there’s no way I’m making the 1pm bus. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Saint Greg Posted June 25, 2021 Author #964 Share Posted June 25, 2021 I decided to go left and hope it takes me to the main temple. There’s actually a lady behind the trees conducting a extensive photo shoot. It turns out I’ll by by this two more times and one of the workers will tell me this is the palace where the king lived. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Saint Greg Posted June 25, 2021 Author #969 Share Posted June 25, 2021 I don’t think this is really higher than the High Temple. Someone has bad numbers or I just got the heights mixed up. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Saint Greg Posted June 25, 2021 Author #971 Share Posted June 25, 2021 When I got back to the fork in the road where you could go left or straight I had a petty cab driver offer to drive me to the last two sets and back out for $5. I said let’s go. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Saint Greg Posted June 25, 2021 Author #972 Share Posted June 25, 2021 Before i got to the petty cab driver I was able to the the one where the lady was posing without having to angle it so she’d be Behind a tree. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Saint Greg Posted June 25, 2021 Author #975 Share Posted June 25, 2021 We came to a part he said was the actual Mayan highway. I took a 30 sec video there. I later heard a lady say her guide said they called it the white highway. they traveled at night and the moon would light up the road.
