tikal

most of drawings lately are still in black and white stages but will update colour versions soon... but for now here it goes.

drawn at 5am or so. there is some writing next to this by a friend

Jereme, a mate from Sydney, who i met in Guate, many a funny night w/ him and rest of Antigua crew. we are 'get a dog up ya!'. wait until you see the Australia day tee's we are designing

tikal had a load of animals, can't remember what these are called but there were also toucans, other birds and monkeys (one tried to shit on us from up the tree as we were looking up at them).

climbing up one of the temples. the view from these over the surrounding area was amazing. am getting a series of photos photostitched and will update it here when i get it back

another area of temples. a few of these

climbed a temple opposite this one about as high

temple V. on first day we only saw temple VI as we got there at 16:30 or so and the curfew is 18:00 and pretty much as soon as we walked in it started raining. so we took shelter and waited for rain to stop... it didn't so we started walking back out close to 18:00. it was dark and we had no torch so could barely see in front of us... then there were all the water pools on the path. just had to venture forth as there was no way any of us was stepping into the jungle to go around water. impressive jungle all around, so easy to get lost there i imagine.

till next time
