Mixco Viejo

On Friday, Jan. 30, we also visited Mayan ruins at Mixco Viejo.

It was a beautiful setting, in a valley surrounded by mountains.


The Mayan ruins were impressively restored.


The children had fun climbing the monuments.


And, of course, Tony had to climb up too! Some of them were very steep.



The girls and I were impressed with the practical restroom, complete with flush toilets and running water. Notice the toilet paper dispenser mounted by the doors. The water from the sink drained out a pipe to Alisha's left and ran onto the ground below.

Oh My! The picture of Tony climbing is scary! Hopefully it wasn't quite as steep as it looks!!!
