There is human sacrifice, deadly ballgames, and even surprisingly a giant snake... she still hates snakes though. Audry paints us a picture of a wild Aztec sacrifice that includes a flower crown, flute, and four brides. Finally, Natalee blesses us with more lists and talks about early tools in history!
