THE NOHOCH MUL PYRAMID is one of the tallest Mayan temples in Mexico, and our daughter was especially excited about being able to climb it so – of course – our toddler also insisted that he do it. I loved this experience because it represents the next level of travelling we can do with our kids. Seeing their faces at the top when they’d accomplished what they set out to do was priceless. In fact, that was possibly even better than the incredible view. It demonstrated to us how much more fun we are going to have travelling with our children as they get older, not only observing their changing abilities and looking forward to all the experiences we can have together, but also watching them grow by learning about new cultures – and pushing their physical limitations.
