We did an amazing thing today and GOT UP EARLY. Up at 7am to be at palenque ruins when it opened at 8am. Infact we were the first people in! and ohhh i liked palenque so much better than chichen itza. It was reasonably tepid at 8 so also gives you enough engery to climb all the ruins, which really are in pretty good nick. there were so many and all surrounded by thick jungle (could hear those monkeys again!). We were able to walk into 1 tomb and all around the palace. Saw so many carvings in the rocks they used, really amazing. cant really describe it, best look at photos but even den was impressed.
Outta there in time for breaky (COFFEEEEEE) and on the bus at 1140. record time. Lovely drive this time (well apart from the windy corners) through jungle and slowly see the bush change from hot jungle to more dense forest. Mmmmm cooler climates! and yes we get off the bus and its cool! lovely.
Nice backpackers place, le gite. And ll these backpacker restaurants!!! which is always nice as it makes it a bit easy. buuuurgers for dinner. Nomnomnom!
