        Chris in good form
      
          
  
      
- 
    
      
        Eric missed the block, but Chris was there to back him up

        Walking down into Tulum
      
          
  
      
- 
    
      
        "Tulum" means "walled city"
      
          
  
      
- 
    
      
        They really mean, "walled city".  This is the entrance and this wall used to be 15 feet high.
      
          
  
      
- 
    
      
        There were lots of other touristas.
      
          
  
      
- 
    
      
        The entrance from the inside.
      
          
  
      
- 
    
      
        One of the corner turrets, not far from the entrance.
      
          
  
      
- 
    
      
        Looking east from the NW corner turret (towards the ocean).
      
          
  
      
- 
    
      
        Ruins.  You can see remnants of the original red pigment on the outside (short) wall.
      
          
  
      
- 
    
      
        Roof pillars.  These were not tall people.
      
          
  
      
- 
    
      
        Looking East towards "el castillo" (far center).
      
          
  
      
- 
    
      
        Steps to nowhere.
      
          
  
      
- 
    
      
        A recently built thatch hut at Tulum, looking off to the ocean.
      
          
  
      
- 
    
      
        Ruins.  The thatched roof there is to protect some fragile part of the structure.
      
          
  
      
- 
    
      
        You can see clearly the height of the first floor of this building.  The thatch is protecting a mural on the second floor.
      
          
  
      
- 
    
      
        A slanted walkway leads up to worn pillars and a door to the inside of this building (we couldn't go up there).
      
          
  
      
- 
    
      
        More interesting worn stairs.
      
          
  
      
- 
    
      
        "El Castillo" the central building (used for ceremonies, we are told).
      
          
  
      
- 
    
      
        The walls were covered with paintings.  You can see remnants of the blue, black, and red on this protected wall.
      
          
  
      
- 
    
      
        The cornice of this building was designed to look like a face.  It faced the NW corner tower.  I forget what the guide said it w
      
          
  
      
- 
    
      
        More pillars.  It's not clear what this thatch is protecting.  Whatever it is, it is very strange looking.
      
          
  
      
- 
    
      
        This was a tomb and that rectangle was the last resting place of someone important.
      
          
  
      
- 
    
      
        They sure built pillars well.  They should have built the second stories out of  the same material...
      
          
  
      
- 
    
      
        Unfortunately we weren't allowed to get very close to most of the buildings to avoid damage.

        This girl had won the Ms. Barcelo Contest the previous evening at our resort.
      
          
  
      
- 
    
      
        A very strange looking tree.
