Traveling by Bus

We are on a 4 hour bus ride to Chetumal, the state capital of Quintana Roo (a state of Mexico) and the most southern main town. From what we hear Chetumal is pretty much just a place to stopover en route to Belize. On the bus with us is the Australian and English guys we meet last night. Between...

Tulum Ruins

We got into Tulum yesterday (Sunday). It was a 45 minute bus ride from Playa del Carmen but seem a bit longer. When we got here we checked into the Weary Travel Hostel, which was about a block south from the ADO bus station, then walked up and back down the town. It is a small town only about 12...
