Caving near San Ignacio





Mindy, PJ, Kristen, and I went to the Actun Tunichil Muknal cave to see ancient Maya artifacts. It involved a Goonies-like climb and swim alongside an underground river. At the end of the hike were tons of artifacts and the "Crystal Princess," a full skeleton of a young female who was sacrificed to the gods a thousand years ago. There were also skulls, bones, and pottery scattered throughout the cave alongside dripping stalactities and stalagmites. Awesome!
