Yucutan


Back from ten days in the jungles of Mexico. We stayed in the house shown above, and yes, swam for hours in that delicious pool. The Mayan ruin of Ek Balam was about half a mile away. This retreat is in a small puebla of about 400 souls, amazingly poor folk who have generally managed to find a level of living that sustains but would be very foreign to Americans.

Lots of dogs.


Lots of hungry dogs.



And one hungry bird...



And, of course, the lovely ocean...

Cool pictures. Did you at least bring me back a monkey?

Yes, we'll be bringing it up for the Reformation Lectures, should I have the pesos to attend.

Actually, the only monkeys we saw were roadkill.
