This is the round observatory portion of "El Caraco" Being an amateur astronomer I am totally blown away by the advance technology of this diverse and contrasting Mayan civilization. I have had the privilege of organizing traveling trip for local girls soccer teams over the past decade or so and this past summer Lalo and I took his GU15 Girls team down to Playa Del Carmen, Mexico to play some soccer and experience some of the culture of the area. On Thursday we spent the day traveling and exploring the ancient city of Chichen Itza and it's ruins. Over the next week or so I will post picture from this trip and all of the places we visited. Enjoy
