The temples are beautiful. It was amazing that you could walk and climb on them. From the pictures it looked like you were the only ones there. What a beautiful day looked like clear skies finally!!! The kids have gotten so big what a fun day.

Such a nice few days y'all have had!! I am glad the weather has started to clear up a little bit, the views are quite beautiful with a blue sky. The temples nevertheless never cease to amaze me. I am becoming anxious to see one up close and personal myself. So happy you got to spend time with Francesco and his family. They seem so sweet and the kids are just adorable. Keep adventuring! miss you lots!!
