Guatemala, Tikal Tempel 5

I don't remember climbing temple 5: I did, however, climb the tallest temple at Tikal, Temple 4, in the pre-dawn dark so I could watch the sun rise.
It was amazing. A forest full of sound, but still dark... and when light dawned, I could see nothing but forest to the horizon all round, with only the tops of the other Tikal temples jutting through.
One of the world's most amazing places, isn't it?

I was in Tikal in 1969. We stayed in Temple 1 and Temple 2. The guards charged 1 quetzal per night per person. In 1969 a quetzal was worth 1 dollar. Now you can about 7.5 quetzals for 1 dollar.

No. I would love to though. I bet that would be great. The stars there are meant to be breath taking.
