View of Uxmal






This was taken high above the main Mayan ruin area of Uxmal, which means "thrice built".  Often in 400-600.AD, temples were built and rebuilt as improvements to the current structure, and for other spiritual reasons.  We stayed across the road from this ruin and loved the quiet of the surrounding areas. 

Supposedly, there are jaguars in the wild near this ruin and other nearby environments.  One evening we took a long walk and marveled at the stars, the clear night and nearly full moon.  Hearing rustling in the bushes made us pause, but all was good and we were safe.
