The Adventures of Kerri & Matt

This is the temple of the skulls. It has skulls carved at the top.

This is the tomb of the Red Queen. Remember the red skeleton?

This is the temple of the inscriptions.

This is the palace

This is peaking through a window somewhere in the palace

And this is the other side of the tower

And this is the inside

And this is a weird dragony snake thing

Kerri is up high

This aquaduct brought water from the mountains

This is an unmemorable building

This is a good view from the tall temple of the cross

But the picture of Kerri at the top of the temple of the cross is facing the unmemorable building

OK fine, a lot of the buildings aren’t that memorable

This one is mostly memorable for climbing its steep stairs.

The ruins of Palenque are hidden in the jungle

And you can only see the bits that have been excavated through the trees.

They have a lot of intricate carvings in the sheltered areas, but those are pretty dark.

They’re also at the tops of the temples, so you have to climb all the stairs to see them.

Most of the carvings are writing, and most of the writing is dates.

Most of the buildings have these weird comb things on the roof

But most of the comb thingies are falling apart.

It’s a lot of stairs

The priests must have been in good shape.

I don’t think I can tell you what’s going on here. The girls would probably be amused, but readers with dangly bits tend not to like talking about stabbing them with sharp objects.

They didn’t even drink the water in the canals, they brought bottled spring water down from the mountains for drinking. This is just for washing.

This is the ball court.
