Adventure to the Village

 Hullo! Yep, still our Mexico posts and... what? Um... yes... this thing...

Not exactly sure what it is... a lion? 

Better not stick my head in too far!

We are heading to the local village today... the one across the highway... there are some amazing murals on the sides of the car overpass.

Beary cool.

This one in particular is amazing...

What do you think??

Ohhhh... bees!!!! Or is that a wasp....

And then we walked over the pedestrian overpass which was... in need of repair... which they were doing... I don't think Beanie Mouse (or Andrea) would like this...

And there's more murals on this side!

Cool... let's see about this village...

Oh... and we learned later, there were even more murals on the south side of the overpass... completely missed those... oh well.

This tree is beary pretty with yellow flowers... beary nice against the blue sky.

These local inhabitants are having a siesta...

And we found a tiny ruin near the edge of the village! It's a small one...but a Mexican archaeologist is documenting it and says it's from the post-classic period of the Maya and was once used for religious purposes. He suspects it was dedicated to Ek Chuah, the god of commerce.

There were "do not enter signs everywhere" cause this place is getting vandalized... So we took some pics and wandered off.

Another local inhabitant... smart napping spot!

We found a turtle statue! And then headed back....

Along the way we passed a vending machine... not the most... appealing name...

Or does it mean only "bimbos" would sselect these options? 

When we got back to the room, there was a towel animal waiting for us!! A sloth maybe? Has long arms and legs!
