Rain in Flores, Guatemala

This place is magickal.  Taken within a residential complex in the Mayan ruins of Tikal.

Tikal, Guatemala

The sound you hear is me clapping in the center of the main plaza of Tikal.  The acoustics were designed so that when you clap in a certain spot before a ritual altar, the sound bounces off the steps of the surrounding pyramids and make a sound identical to the call of the Quetzals.  Guatemala's national bird.

Lanquin, Guatemala

I had to escape the chaos of little Europe/Australia/South Africa for some serenity in the jungle.

The slurrish ramblings of an frustrated mayan, in a cruel world...
