Ruinas Uxmal is so much like the Ruinas Chichen Itza which Hans and I really enjoyed.

Love your emphasis on the architectual details. What an opportunity for you. Love the iguana sign! Your description of the meal was enticing. Vibrant, vivid photographs. Interesting, informative reading.

Amazing pictures of secret and unique architecture! Whenever I go there (I do hope) I promise not to disturb the iguanas, hmm... they don't like flash, I suppose but they pose quite well on sunlight :-)
