In September, 2022, Saline resident George Jabol traveled for twelve days in

Mexico, primarily to explore the remains of Aztec and Mayan cultures, but also to learn about what life is like in modern Mexico. The tour began in Mexico City, with visits to the impressive Museum of Anthropology and to the Aztec sites at Teotihuacan and Tenochtitlan. Near Veracruz he saw the colossal stone heads of leaders of the Olmec civilization, and he then visited the famous Mayan ruins at Palenque and, his personal favorite, at Uxmal. The tour went next to a place considered the cultural capital of the Yucatan, the beautiful Spanish colonial city of Merida. A concluding highlight of the trip was time spent at the wondrous ancient Mayan city of Chichen Itza. The journey ended with a stay at a resort on the Gulf of Mexico in Cancun. After you’ve seen this travelogue, you may agree with what so many have said before, that “I love Mexico!”.
