Corozal on the 'chicken bus'.

Standing in the 'Ball Court' listening to our guide tell us about the
history of the site. We're told that this is one of the smallest ball courts in
the Maya world...

Heading back to Corozal on the chicken bus. The bus drivers in Belize drive
very fast. The buses are old Bluebird school type busses, their springs are shot
from flying over all of the speed bumps and potholes. But it is all about the experience,
and we had a great time!
