(misol-ha)
palenque is so incredibly hot. and intensely humid. i don't deal well with this. but despite the weather, i found it hard to resist the sights.
on our free day on thursday, i laid in bed in our air-conditioned room and ventured out to the pool for only a brief dip. then i slept, and slept and slept.
but on friday, we took our little tour van out to the waterfalls of misol-ha. it was one slender waterfall that fell into a spacious bathing pool that the majority of the kids in my class jumped in to. absolutely gorgeous. and early enough in the day that the humidity didn't kill me.
(agua azul)later, we went out for our venture to the waterfalls of agua azul. walking up about a mile of terraced steps, we encountered cascade after cascade of beautiful water. every single foot of the trek made a photo. despite the heat, it was relaxing. and i found places to sit down and enjoy the view without feeling too much sicker.
then it was back to the room to hibernate in the conditioned air.
