    Me too, me too! I have students that have gone on school trips recently who have told me they climbed it, but tour companies are saying it's closed. Is it just for the "special" people now?

    I have heard it's open directly from people who've been there recently. Am thinking of going out there in a couple of weeks with mom. It will be my 7th visit there.

    E - Have fun!!! We always bring a cooler with snacks in it, that makes it a little less of a journey. And we bring some good music for the car ride, and extra batts for the camera. Oh, I'm jealous...will wait for your trip report chica.

    Had a really great time. As of yesterday you could not climb the pyramid. Our guide said that they would reopen it but didn't give a date. So for now, no climbing! Bummer.

    Liz - Thanks for the info. It's amazing how many conflicting reports I've gotten on this. But I'll believe you because I KNOW WHERE YOU LIVE...

    I'm glad you had fun.

    No joke, I went into t for the frst tme 15 years ago and then 5 years later and this time it was open and awsome also to see the equinox there where the light cross for only 3 days on the year from the lttle windows at the top.

    Is amazing their accurate astronomy
