Okay, so I'm looking at the picture of Kukulcan Pyramid in Chichen Itza, the ancient Maya capital, and I'm wondering...

Where's the door to the elevator?

The pyramid's only about 78 feet tall, you would have no trouble.

What's fascinating is the pyramid is a giant statue for predicting the seasons. It's orientation is toward magnetic north. On each of the 4 sides is a staircase with 91 steps.

91 x 4 = 364... + 1 (the platform) = 365 (ie, days in the year)

There's a statue atop the pyramid where the sun would crest upon during the equinox.

On the side of the pyramid you'll see terraces, with glyphs on the side, which correspond to the months and weeks.

That was the performers stage. The ladies got up there to dance and hang with the reggae band, who did some great Bob Marley & the Wailers.

The dude in the chicken suit works for Senor Frog's, he was one of the many folks going around to try to get folks to do shots with him and get $$$ for tips.

That's un-American. :beaten:

Turducken would be acceptable, though.
