Entre Mayas y sus increibles construcciones

Despues del fin de semana de vegeteo entre la playa y Cancun ciudad me fui con un tour hasta las ruinas de Chichen Itza (maravilla del mundo declarada hace un par de años!!). Segun me siento en el autobus oigo a los de al lado hablando en euskara, dos matrimonios de Orereta que estaban visitando...
