Flying Delta this month? Bored by the in-flight entertainment? Wondering what to do on the summer solstice in Uaxactun, Guatemala this year? Then look for my feature article, "TIME TRAVEL," with Guatemala photos by Moon Guatemala author Al Argueta [2], in the in-flight magazine, Delta SKY.
"This December marks the end of the Maya Long Count calendar, and the region will be celebrating the equinoxes and solstices in style. But fear not, experts say the world will still be around in 2013. By Joshua Berman...."
I take the year 2012 and break it down by auspicious dates, with suggested tours and hotels for each celebration -- the article features Merida, Mexico; Uaxactun, Guatemala; Caracol, Belize; and Copan, Honduras. The article is not available online, only in your seat-back... let me know if you spot it in the wild.
