Our plan is to visit Tikal this summer. Unfortunately we don't have time to visit the Mirador area. We have desided to only use 10 days on our roundtrip starting and stopping in Playa. And we want to spend some days in Playa too.

No, That was way back in 1981. I have just bought a new scanner. I may post a few pictures from that later.

You are right, getting to Mirador would be a trip in itself.

http://www.mostlymaya.com/howto/Miradorlogis.html

"At best, this is a somewhat arduous trip. You should not go on it unless you are reasonably decent shape.
On my two trips, there was someone traveling with us each time who was over sixty years old (62 and 65) each time,

so don't let age be too much of a deterrent."
