We woke up at the crack of dawn to visit the Tulum Mayan ruins. We were told to get there right when it opens to avoid the heat and the crowds. This gorgeous sunrise made us forget what time it was.
A little kitty greeted us at the entrance.
Check out the iguana admiring the view in the lower right hand corner of the photo above (click on the photo to blow it up). Since he blends into the rock, I just spotted him now! And doesn't the lone palm tree reminds you of Dr. Suess?
Tulum's ruins are the most picturesque Mayan archaeological site, perched on a cliff above the Caribbean. As recently as the 1960's, the site was accessible only by sea.
As we were leaving, the tour buses were just arriving. Getting there bright and early was the best thing we could have done. It was quiet and peaceful and almost mystical. We practically had the entire ruins to ourselves.
