Day five

On day five, while everyone was relaxing at the hotel until lunch, I went on a tour of the ruins in Tikal. I climbed to the top of Temple 4 (and almost passed out because of the heat), and then explored the Central Plaza for a while. I also got to see a bunch of the pyramids that hadn't been excavated (in order to protect them), and I took a BUNCH of pictures, especially from the very top of Temple 4. I also saw a wide range of tropical plants and animals, so the biodiversity in Tikal is huge. We went back to Flores for lunch, and then made our way to Chisec, where we would be staying for a day or two.
