Last point regarding #Cenote fragility: the building of bridges and foundations with pillars rammed into the soil have been pointed as damaging the underground channel systems. This point I cannot assess. Officials have admitted a lack of environmental impact assessment and it is important to upkeep pressure so it's being done to mitigate issues. I have however not seen or heard of any actual damage so far, but only the fear thereof. I am happy to receive more information and studies if any?
A second major environmental concern is for the region's fragile #cenote systems. #YucatΓ‘n peninsula does not have rivers, but water infiltrates in the porous limestone and converges in natural basins and wells where water is drawn from. I can easily imagine how a government with limited means and exposure to corruption would neglect an in-depth analysis of the impact of the #TrenMaya project on such precious ecosystem.
My first cavern dive! It was a surreal experience. The psychological challenge was unnerving and very real. #cavern #cenote #diving #scuba

I am sorry I haven't posted anything in a few months! We ended up leaving our motorcycles in Montevideo over winter and escaped to the warmth of Mexcio instead. Here are some pictures of a cente (waterfilled limestone cave). These are all over the Yucatan Peninsula and supplied many mesoamerican cultures with fresh drinking water, so you find them close to many ancient cities.
