Chichen Itza

Here are some of the pictures from our trip to Mexico that have been requested.  These were taken at Chichen Itza.

This is an old lady that was selling little handkerchiefs.  Very sweet lady.


The next three were taken at the court yard.
Notice the first one is a player in pads, knees, elbows, etc.  What else is he holding in his left hand besides a playing stick?


This one is a bit worn on the left side (of the picture) but you can see that he has a club/ax in his right hand and he too has something hanging from his left hand.


This guy is kneeling on the ground.  In front of him is a ball with the picture of a skull in it.  What is this guy missing?  Hint.  Look at where the seven snakes are (one snake is missing).  Are they spewing out of his neck?


The next two we are in the courtyard.






And here we are in front of the largest pyramid.
