Day 7 -Touring in and around Oaxaca

Today was yoga in the morning and the Mayan Monte Alban site in the afternoon.

The obscure entrance that initially deceived me led to the inner courtyard of the Yoga Studio

House Of The Angel Yoga Studio
The instructor was German who taught
in Spanish. A very nice studio to add to my
ongoing collection of international
yoga studios I've attended.

La Gata de Yoga

The park just outside of the Yoga Studio, very peaceful.

Some market mayhem during
my morning walk.

More pictures of the Santo Domingo Church




Any wonder where all that gold went?

This is the start of the tour of Monte Alban, the Mayan ruins...
Some of the better pieces of ceramics and stone
carvings were inside the museum.

Even the Mayans knew about the State of Idaho. Hmmm?
Here's the story, it's actually a time piece.

Quite a large place and difficult to capture in a standard photo.

Another view from the opposite direction looking South. The place is huge.

Southeast view.









The camera looks North

The place was very large and Don wanted me to capture the
immensity of the place compared to him.



That is Don in the background just left of center.



Another look back at Oaxaca
 Post tour dinner back at a cafe in the Zocola...
