We rode in to San Ignacio and camped with a great family who took care of us for 6 nights. We also met a great author whom we spent many hours talking to, sharing stories and learning from. We did a day trip to the caves known as ATM- Actun Tunichil Muknal. We had an incredible guide who took us on more of a spiritual journey than just a 'tour'. Unfortunately, cameras are prohibited as last year a very good tourist dropped their camera and smashed a hole in a skull that is more than 1000 years old and has been preserved naturally by the limestone and water. We rode out to the ruins of Xunantunich, just on the Guatemalan border. These were very impressive and our favourite shots are below.
