tuesday, march 21st - chichen itza
today we witnessed a wonderful event: the spring solstice (the beginning of spring) in the pre-hispanic city of chichen itza. There were thousands of people, especially near the pyramid of kukulkan. People have celebrated the solstices here for more than a thousand years. We met daniel, a man drom merida. He told mark and me that this was the36th year that he has been on the pyramid at spring solstice! he said that every year he has climbed to the top, raised his hands to the sky, and asked for good health for himself and his family. He is now 67 and very strong and healthy, so maybe the mayan gods really listen to him!
it was hot in the morning, hot in the afternoon, and hot at night! we drank liters of water.
At night, we haddinner with daniel at his favorite restaurant, We ate poc chuc, papadzules, salbutes, and relleno negro. I can't pronunce the names of those dishes - but they were all delicious.
Martes, 21 de marzo - chichen itza
Hoy fuimos testigos de un acontecimiento maravilloso: el solsticio de primavera (el comienzo de la primavera) en la ciudad prehispánica de Chichén Itzá. Había miles de personas,especialmente cerca de la pirámide de Kukulkán. La gente se ha celebrado el solsticio aquí durante más de mil años. Nos encontramos con Daniel, un hombre drom merida. Él le dijo a Mark y yo que era el 36 º año que ha estado en la pirámide en el solsticio de primavera! dijo que cada año ha escalado hasta la cima, levantó las manos al cielo, y pidió para una buena salud para él y su familia. Él es ahora de67 años y muy fuerte y saludable, así que tal vez los dioses mayas realmente escucharlo!
que estaba caliente por la mañana, por la tarde caliente, y caliente por la noche! bebimos litros de agua.
Por la noche, cenamos con daniel en su restaurante favorito, comimos poc chuc, papadzules, salbutes y relleno negro. No puedo pronunce los nombres de los platos - pero eran todos deliciosos.Lectura “2”

Reducing yourn ecological footprint
La reducción de su huella ecológica
humanity is using up the natural resources of the Earth. We use up fossil energy sources, we cut down trees for wood, we build houses and use land for farming, and wecontaminate the air and water. How much longer can we continue like this? Will we destroy the Hearth?
people, cities, companies and conuntries can calculate their "ecological footprint" whitch tells how many resources from the land and sea we need to live our current lifestyles. Since the 1970s, we have used our planet's resources faster than the Earth can produce the resources again. These days,we are taking 40% more from our planet than it can give back to us. And the bad news is, the situation will probably get worse.
