Tikal

Tikal is amazing and HUGE. Not really sure what to say about the ruins except that they are massive and when you climb them you get amazing views of the surrounding jungle. I met a group from the Sierra Nevada Club who showed me some Tucans and Parrots through their binoculars. They were specific kinds, but beyond my knowledge. Also saw some Howler Monkey wandering around, which sound like lions. I took some video so hopefully the sound comes out. I spent the night up here in a hammack ... was pretty cool with all the jungle noise around you. It was a bit colder than I thought it would be.
