TIKAL HERE I AM!!!!

About 3 days ago, myself and some other MetEast Trailblazers decided that we wanted to explore an active volcano. we had to walk an hour and a half just to get to the top of the hill so that we could start climbing the volcano. When we reached the top our heads were in the clouds and it was like I was on top of the world and it felt great. As we started to walk up the volcano I didn´t feel good about what we were doing but I was curious to see what the volcano was going to have in store for us. 2 people were seriously injured but the rest got out safe.

Today was the tikal trip and that was also a very great experience. I mean it's not everyday you get to see great mayan ruins. we explored in tikal for just about 4 hours and I climbed 3 tall temples. These templpes were so high up in the sky that I could probably could see home from there (yeah right). Our tour guides name was Julio. We seen a lot of animals today such as toucans, spider monkeys, turkeys, and that is about it because all the viscious animals sleep during the day time.

Even though I am having so much fun, I still think about home everyday and I cannot wait to return to the U.S. You'll be hearing from me on tuesday but until then....

Adios Amigos!!!!!
