Mexico - Palenque
We took a 6-hour bus ride from Campeche to Palenque. Mexican bus system is great! Their first class buses have computerized seat assignments, a/c and play movies. It has been really easy to get around in Mexico.
Palenque is famous for its Mayan ruins set in a tropical forest. According to Rough Guide, it was "founded around 100 BC as a farming village, its peak came during the seventh century.¨
That´s Bill at the very top:
Vacation from vacation: This was in Campeche. It has been incredibly hot and humid here. Even if I am sitting in the shade, sweat drips down and it feels like I am sitting in a sauna. We walked by this hotel and decided to ask if we could use their pool. We ended up spending a whole afternoon there for ordering $10 worth of food! Their marble, air-conditioned bathroom was nicer than our room at the hostel. $10 well spent.

We can go to the Holiday Inn pool for $10 here in Spokane. :)
I fully support the idea of a vacation from the vacation. I hope you had a couple of Coronas at the pool.
