"Globe" Trotting: Tulum

This blogger was gently reminded today of the fact that there's quite a backlog of globe trotting photos that need to be posted. Oops...apologies! Given that more are always wanted and encouraged, it behooves me to post what I've got.

The CFLC globe trotted in late October (ahem!) to Tulum, Mexico, with Diane Henderson, CFLC trainer.

For the curious who want to know more about this interesting place, some general and travel information about Tulum can be found here, here, here and here; a heavily illustrated tour here; and, in Spanish, the official information from the INAH (Instituto Nacional de Antropología e Historia) here. Some of the most fascinating information, however, allows photographic comparison with the historic Catherwood illustrations from the Stephens and Catherwood expeditions of the 1840's: Castillo photo here/illustrations here and here; Temple of the Frescoes photo here/illustration here and fresco detail here; site plan of Tulum here; and photo of Temple of the Diving God (also pictured below) here.
