Thank you Luis! I was just looking for the ID! I wish you could have come too! We should plan a double family trip next year! I went to see the Canto de La Selva, love the forest all around it! We ended up staying a couple of nights at the Guacamayas. It is a great place too! We also went into the Montes Azules by boat and to Bonampak and Yaxchilan. Also to see a really neat waterfall called Las Golondrinas.

I wish I could have gone with you to the Lacandon Rainforest Lauren.
