About Tikal.. it was accually built after book of mormon times... They say the Mirador (which they are discovering now) is twice as big and could be a good canidate for BOM times...Are you learning how to breathe in the sweltering conditions? Its the sweating that sucksWhat are the tricks in learning how to cope there? Drink 2 quarts of water a day AND STILL GET DEHYDRATED.... just time helps..Have you got ready made investigotors or are you going to have to find them? we have a babtism no the 18th.. and a canadite for the 25thish
