There's not much to report today. We went to a beautiful waterfall in the mountains near Palenque. The rest of the day, I assume, was spent on some rest before a very long day tomorrow and (hopefully) some catching up on travelogs from the class participants.

We head to Uxmal tomorrow before going to Kiuic tomorrow evening. Uxmal is a UNESCO cultural heritage site, so we will continue to ponder the rhetorical/material power of this marker and the notion that we all "own" these sites. At Kiuic, we will consider the close (and complicated) relationship between archaeology and tourism in the Yucatan.

hasta luego....
