Cruise: Day 3 - Progreso

Day 3 of our cruise was spent in Progreso, Mexico. It is a very small little port on the northern side of the Yucatan. We took a short bus ride through town to the Mayan ruins at Dzibilchaltun, where we had a tour then spent some time exploring the ruins.


Port of Progreso - very small with a loooong pier (4 miles) into town

A chapel built by the Spanish

The cenote where a lot of people went swimming.




Most of the structures didn't have names. Some of them had numbers, but other than that there wasn't identification for them. This one is Structure 3b.

 

Temple of the Seven Dolls


The picture on the left is the road walking up to the Temple of the Seven Dolls. The picture on the right is looking out one of the windows back up the road. The temple is about half a mile from the rest of the ruins.

Our waiters entertaining us at dinner dancing to Apple Bottom Jeans. It was definitely entertaining!

 I have a lot more pictures from Dzibilchaltun that I'll put up on facebook.
