Copan
The Grand Plaza

After visiting with the Scarlet Macaws and small stelae near the entrance, we walked over to the stelae in the Grand Plaza.  I loved seeing these stelae again, especially Stela H.  I carried a heaxgonal-shaped Rose Quartz crystal with me to all of the stelae and altars and placed the crystal on a couple of them to pick up their energy.  Since I photographed most of these stelae in March 2009, I am only including a few photos here.  Sadly, I again forgot to photograph Stela E as well as Temples I, II, III, and CCXXIII (Roman numeral “223”), so I need to come back to Copan to do that.  I never get tired of the stelae in the Grand Plaza!
