More of Ak' Tenamit

Here are a few pictures of where we stayed in Ak' Tenamit (did I mention it is only accessable by boat?). So we had a day of play, a day of work (which I'll post the pics for once I get them) and then the next day we left, heading North for Flores and Tikal. If anyone one wants to know more about Ak' Tenamit, which really is a great organization that really needs more funding, their website is http://www.aktenamit.org/

What you see when you first pull up to the first (girls) site of Ak' Tenamit by boat. The two houses are the staff housing areas.

This is where we stayed. It had two floors that just had beds (wood frames with foamies on them). The bottom floor had a bunch of bunk beds and the top floor had some single beds and some bunk beds

This is the outside of a latrine. This is the one that we were supposed to use, though most of the time we just opted to use the bush.

Oh yes, this is a latrine. You can see why they need to build more. I think there were only 3 or 4 working latrines left on the girls side - for 125 girls.... and this is the one we were to use. Basically the front half is where you pee and the back half... well you get the idea.
