Enter Copan Ruinas
Getting into town was a trip. We were the only gringos on the bus and the last to get off of it when it stopped just over the bridge in Copan Ruinas. I stepped off the bus without realizing that Kyle was not right behind me. I was set upon like a swarm of locusts by men trying to get me to come to this hotel or that hostel. My eyes were as big as saucers as I pushed through, trying to get to a clear spot on the pavement. Kyle came up from behind, grabbed me, and pulled me to safety. Welcome to Copan Ruinas.
We woke up early today so that we could rock Copan with a vengeance as soon as it opened at 8am. As there were few other tourists, perhaps we could have slept in.
The ruins were beautiful.
Copan is made most famous for the stelae found throughout the ruins. I found it all to be interesting, though small.
The ruins only took about two hours to get through. They were small, but a great introduction for me to Mayan ruins.
well, now you know be to aware of where Kyle is. Mom and I laughed because we could just imagine your saucer size eyes. love you
