Pictures tell a story and so do videos. We're posting a few so that you can see what we saw and hear what we heard. I must say...we had an amazing time.
In Cozumel receiving history of the area
These are videos at the Uxmal Mayan ruins...particularly in the ball court where matches would be held. A ball would be thrown down the center and the players would have to hit it with various parts of the body (hip, etc.). Decapitation also became a part of the game. The Mayans thought the greatest sacrifice was life so this game was truly a blood sport.
There is also a video where Carnival waitstaff puts on a show!
