We're On Top of the World!!!!!!

We finally made it to the very top!... Easy coming up.... yeah... try getting back down with no handrails!


So "El Castillo" was the center of all things religious for these people. The priests would come all the way up here and address the people.... so we asked.... how could they possibly hear this guy. His throat must have hurt something fierce by the next day!
Answer: The entire site was built in the form of an amphitheater. Standing from the top of the pyramid, a normal voice would carry and amplify by the time it got below. We didn't believe our guide sooooo.... see those people down there? We asked them if they could hear us using a fairly normal voice.... they instantly looked up and gave us a thumbs up! Unbelieveable!!!!!
