Chichen Itza in Mexico

Ruins and a Flower

It was hot when we visited the ruins of Chichen Itza. I hid under the shade of a flower for a while.

Posing

Beth insisted I be in a photo with the most famous of the old Maya ruins. But El Castillo was very blurred in this photo.

Another Try

You can guess whose hand that is. The blur behind me is El Castillo.

Sharing the Spotlight

Beth wanted to hold me in this photo. Yep, the ruins are in focus, but I'm not. Beth just wanted to hog the spotlight. She's in focus, too.

Better Ruins

If you wander off a while you can find some ruins that aren't totally protected by ropes. I sat right down on one big, chunky circle. You can see the columns in the distance, behind me. I love being right in the middle of Mayan history!

Sunrise

Beth dragged me out at 6:15, but the sunrise was blocked by clouds.

Protected?

She put me in her footprint, as if that wall of sand surrounding me would keep the water away.

It looks like I'm far away from danger, but the sea water filled up Beth's footprint right after she snatched me up!

Up and Away

I decided to find a place to relax, away from the sand and water. I clung tight to the ropes.

My Hammock

There was no one around so early, but you never know who might come along.

I decided it was better to be safe than sorry. The day before I saw a lot of large and lazy bodies rocking in those green hammocks.

I figured I would enjoy the breeze from my safe spot.

I like rocking.

Easter?

This is confusing.

Beth and Don took me to Mexico. Beth thought it was a clever idea to pack along some Easter bunnies, since we would be away during the holiday. On Easter morning I thought there would be jelly beans and dyed eggs... pastel colors at the very least. But, there were no signs of Easter. Beth's hotel coffee came in a Santa mug.

This is just not right.

Ship and Burro

Last spring I arrived in Cozumel, Mexico on a big cruise ship. It was a little different this year.

Pardo the Burro

This time I rode across the Rio Grande in a rowboat and traveled up a dirt road on my buddy Pardo.

Tacos in Boquillas

Only now and then do I pose on a plate for travel photos. I did it once with oysters and maybe once with shrimp. But I was so excited about my visit to the village of Boquillas, that I just had to sit next to these steamy chicken tacos!

Plus, there was a great view!

By the way, I did not have any beer. I like to be extra alert when I'm riding burros!

Another Country for my List!

Here I am in a palm tree on the island of Cozumel.

Another Palm

But I've actually posed with palm trees in Texas, so that wasn't a new adventure.

Posing with an Instrument

Now this is a first! Not only did I pose on this giant instrument, but it was being played while I sat there!

Good Vibrations!

People talk about feeling the music! I felt every humming note as I sat next to those vibrating strings! I will remember this fine musician and his colorful music more than any of those palm trees!
