One of the ruins, wish I could tell you which one.
We were impressed to see that the ancient Mayans invented screen doors! ;-)
Another one of the ruins, so cool!
Here was a piece of wood that looked like an iguana to me, thought it was a cool pic!

Those ruins put ours to shame. We walked around "The Rocks" in Sydney which is the oldest part of Sydney city. There are old houses and ruins there but nothing as old as the mayan buildings here.
One of the big attractions for travelling to the states would be to see ancient architecture.
Sean-
I hear that the ruins on the mainland of Mexico make these ruins look small and sad. We really wanted to see Tulum since the main ruin is on the edge of a cliff overlooking the ocean. But the logistics of getting to the mainland were a nightmare. We plan to go back, during a cooler time of year, and stay in Playa del Carmen or something so we can visit Tulum, Chichen Itza and Coba. But I certainly couldn't complain, the ruins we saw were a wonderful testament to the Mayan culture.
