Caracol

Day: 230

Not to much writing today, internet is $7 an hour so I am just trying to cheaply get up a few pictures from the Mayan ruins at Caracol.  It was once a city of 150,000 (more than twice the size of the biggest city in Belize today) and still contains the biggest structure in the country. We just hiked all over it.

We also managed to hit up the Rio Frio Caves while we waited the hour for the police escort that has too caravan everyone the last 20 miles up a dirt road, throught the jungle to get to Caracol.  Some problem with Guatamalen bandits a few years ago or something.
