Day Two

Traveling out of New Orleans. I always thought that the boot of Louisiana was solid. Not so..... No wonder there was so much trouble with Katrina and the oil refineries. It took most of the night to work out to the Gulf of Mexico We used our time during the trip to do all that we could do not to gain weight. Good eating. We found that an 800 foot long boat could be a great walk. Eight times around equals 2.8 miles. Diane and Stephen had a bet before they left. Can't wait to see who won. (Jerusalem or the Tractor)

Here I am following up the rear. So what new

Pretty fancy place to eat. Just one of many restaurants

on the boat. Too many forks for me. We had great company from our group

We took lots of Pencils, Crayons, Notebooks, erasers

etc. We had backpacks to get them off the boat so that

they would not be a noticable. We were told if the Authorities knew what we were

up to they would take it all away.

All smiles in Coasta Maya, Mexico. The weather

was great and our backpacks were full with no

one the wiser. The water was sooooo blue. Next time I will

be certified to Scuba Dive. Right Brent Cute little school. One room with kids that don't

have the supplies they need. What a coincidence

Go figure ! Wonder who is inside? This looks like a great place to reduce the weight

before we continue the day!!

Just Loved talking to the kids. Some of us could use the language.....Some

couldn't but don't think the kids didn't know

what was being said to them. LOTS OF LOVE Best Pay Ever......We got a special song No Diane and Catherine.....You can't stay.....

Too much Grandma in you. Well ....off to the bus for the rest of the journey These Altars were cool. Everytime there was a

new High Priest, they added to it so that theirs was

bigger and better than the one before.

This is a ceiba tree. In the Myan culture

it is the Tree of Life. If I had the space

to expain it, you could understand. There about 50 sites that have not been reclaimed

in just this one spot. Anytime you would see a hill

like this in such a flat land, you would know the

Archeologist needed to come Right next to it. One compelely done.
