Learning About Mayan Country

I'm currently on a virtual walk in Mexico. Doing these virtual walks motivates me to walk more... and encourages me to learn about places I'm walking through.

The walk started in the seaside city of Tulum - which, to my amazement - would take almost 48 hours to get to by plane from Ottawa!

Walking along, I learned about some of the lovely birds I could see and hear in the forests...

Another interesting place I learned about was an ancient ruin at Coba.

But most of the way as I walk the 150-plus km route, the scenery is as ordinary as any rural road in many places - even Canada.

But the trek is fun nonetheless! There's a sense of accomplishment!
