We had such a fun day out today. David and Manuel are great company and we had such a good time. Laughing, singing, chatting.... and even fitting in a couple of amazing (and really unknown) historical sites. The first one was Quiahuiztlan which is a pre-Hispanic Totanac cemetry. Who are the Totanacs? They were were the guys who allied with the Spanish in the 1500s. The site we visited had a couple of temples and 70 tombs all overlooking the sea. Very nice.
The second place we visited was the beach at Villa Rica - the site of Cortes' landing. We had a few drinks and some spicy fishy stuff while looking at the sea.
The third place we visited was Zempoala which is a Totonac site featuring some great pyramids.
