We decided that we would get up early and travel down to Campeche, a walled, colonial city to the south, before driving back to Merida. There are two choices to get there: the "short" road and the "long road". While the long road looked interesting and not much longer, it was explained that there are hundreds of "topes" or speed bumps on the long road. We took the short road. However, as we found in Ticul earlier, road signs are not always there to help you...we ended up turning too soon and found ourselves passing the ruins of a great hacienda, followed by a small village. We got directions (I don't think that the older man I spoke to had ever conversed with a tall gringra before...), took a few photos, and found the right road. ... read more

Hola, We didnt do much in campeche except eat breakfast on the rooftop and watch street vendors setting up before heading to the bus station. The bus to Palenque took a while, but we had movies (dubbed in spanish) to keep us occupied, e.g. Star Trek and confessions of a shopaholic. There were gappers on the bus, 4 of which were aussies which we bumped into over the next few days as well. Had a chat and they-re on a 27 day trip with gap adventures. Finally we got to palenque and grabbed a colectivo that heads towards the ruinas of palenque (ruins) but got dropped off at a place called El Panchan, a family run area of the jungle with cabanas, dorms etc run by different members of the family so you can choose your ... read more

An easy bus ride south and we arrived in Campeche, a beautifully restored walled city on the coast of the gulf of Mexico. Our plan was to chill out in a nice hotel with a swimming pool etc, this was our last few days of our holiday and we were going to enjoy it We had a lovely time in the Ocean View hotel, we enjoyed lazing around the pool and even had a couple of workouts, which my body continually reminded me about. The Mexican bicentennial holiday period was in full swing now, lots of free festivals and a great party atmosphere, things were going well then…. As we were catching an overnight bus to Mexico City Sharon checked online for any government warnings, I didn’t mention it in previous blogs but a few night ... read more
