Mayan Ruins

Postby BigTruck » Fri Oct 14, 2011 2:34 am

Some of you already know I had been deployed to Belize for the last 5 weeks, and naturally we took in some of the sites.  This was a trip to Xunantunich, one of the larger archaelogical sites in Central America.  It is dated around AD800.

Cool shots :o. Lucky you ;) you'd be a fool not to go to see those ruins when you are so close on purpose ;D
Most people think that flying a plane is dangerous, except pilots because they know how easy it is.
Arguing with a pilot is like wrestling with a pig in the mud, after a while you begin to think the pig likes it.
