Jordan (B) and Kelly's

Kelly and I were supposed to do this a while ago but we never had the chance to. Luckily for you, you can read this now! :) Kelly and I woke up at 4 in the morning today! It was so exhausting. We went on a half-hour hike from the jungle-lodge to the Tikal cite. Once we got there we saw a bunch of pyramids. The most memorable perhaps was Temple IV. We got to see the sunrise from the top of a Mayan pyramid whilst listening to the various sounds of the jungle. A couple of other incredible Mayan structures later we chilled at another place where the jaguar pyramid was. I'd just also  like to casually like to mention THAT I TOUCHED A FREAKING TARANTULA OUT OF MY OWN FREE WILL!!!!!! anyways after visiting one of the most amazing cities in existence we hiked back to the  jungle-lodge for a bit. Then went back to Las Vinas! Home sweet home! well almost lol. I cant believe that I touched a spider ( let alone a TARANTULA), that I climbed a 3000 year-old pyramid, and that I get to share this amazing experience with an amazing group of people.


This is Kelly.  Hi Mom, Dad, and other parents.(Thanks Jordan for writing about everything (-_-) This trip has been very educational and fun.  Today we woke up super early and got to see one of the most beautiful sights I've ever seen.  We hiked for a while to get there but the view was spectacular.  Tikal has so many treasures that people have been appreciating form the beginning of time.  It so awsome to be one of them.  I would also like to state that just today I touched a snake and a tarantula and did not cry.  We also headed to this market and picked up some cool souvenirs. My host family has also been so sweet and accomidating. Enma, Carlos, Carlita, and Maglene have been so sweet, and have made some bomb food.  Overall this trip has been a phenominal experience for me and others.
