Belize

 Our second day of excursions were in Belize.  Ruins were everywhere--but even more buildings and structures were buried under all the jungle growth.


The Mask Temple


One of the offerings found left for the gods was liquid mercury.  Such a finding shows they had technology to get temperatures hot enough to make steel which is a material mentioned in the Book of Mormon.


The High Temple





We were able to climb this temple!


Jaguar Temple

A Mayan Calendar on site (that sometimes accidentally gets used as a place to sit!)

The roots on the jungle trees were incredible!



We heard howler monkeys all throughout the jungle and we were lucky enough to spot one jumping through the trees.
