This day we would visit Tikal a beautiful site with beautiful structures. Although we had a beautiful hotel and sunrise a disadvantage of group traveling was there. Our tourguide wanted to sleep very long so we missed the sunrise at the piramids of Tikal, bummer but maybe if I visit Guatemala again…

This site is roughly 26 square kilometers. L…

So today Rusty and I took the rather early bus to Tikal to see the Mayan ruins. The journey was only about an hour and a quarter, but the bus was really old and uncomfortable.
