After that we pick up some water and hopped back on the bus. Bex was first to see the colossial pyramids on the horizon. Once off the highway the bus took us on a journey all around the pyramids. At points we began to wonder if they were going to stop and let us off. The bus did stop and our guide explained that we were going to learn how some of the artifacts were made before getting to the pyramids. She said this and Spanish and Bex had to translate which lead to us making a friend. The woman sitting next to us was British and overheard us. She thanked Bex for translating.
Once of the bus we were given to another guide that showed us some recreations of indigenous art and jewelry. The primarily used silver and obsenian. Then the guide brought us to an agave plant. She explained how this plant was so valuable. How the indigenious use the plant to make paper, fabric, and even a sewing needle. They she had use try some of the other plants uses, Tequila! And another drink made from agave nectar. It was sweet and less alcohol, more like beer or mead. We returned to the bus and headed to the main attraction.
