Our second trip to Teotihuacan brought much better weather than the first. We got to leave the raincoats at home this time, and the stairs were not as slippery on the sun temple, but that didn't make the climb up or down any easier. It was a beautiful day, though, and we thoroughly enjoyed taking Carri to on of Mexico's most famous archaeological sites. Also, we learned that Sundays are free at Teotihuacan for anyone holding an ID issued by Mexico. That is very good to know!
Carri in the "wild" agave grove...as we know agave is a very useful plant! It produces paper, thread, needles and, most importantly, many types of booze.
Carri and Autumn on the steps of the Temple of Quetzalcoatl. (Say that one 10 times fast!) It is extremely steep, and note that the stair we are standing in front of comes up to our knees. The former residents of Teotihuacan must have had quads of steel!

Ancient bird painting, marvel of the past.
