Chiapas Parte Tres....el Dia Turistico (Aguasazules y Palenque)

Here's my last Chiapas update! These pictures are from our second to last day in Chiapas....our "tourist" day. Yay! We went to Palenque, which was 5 hours away from San Cristobal. Palenque is different ruins. Mayan ruins. These ones were really neat and different then Monte Alban and Teohuatican...which may have been more impressive at first glance, but these were just as awe-inspiring. The pyramids were different.....more shapes and structures. Some of them seemed even like greek towers or castles. It was cool (= We were there for sunset too! AFTER my camera died.....lame lol.




Don't mess with the Mayans lol. Look at that skull!




These pictures are from Aguasazules, which are waterfalls in the jungle in Chiapas. We went on our way to Palenque and could even swim. THey were beautiful. And cool fact: we heard howler monkeys in the background the whole time we were there! Chido!
