Merida Mexico


We arrived at finally arrived in Merida, after a six hour bus ride. The city was facinating and a real Mexican city, which is what I really wanted to see on this trip, not a tourist trap like Cancun. The hotel was beautiful and the staff was professional and really helped us out. Somehow a king size bed was waiting for us and the four of us were not that good of friends and wanted to sleep all together in one bed. Man what a tight fit that would have been, so they gave us a two double bed room.
We were able to get out a little in the evening and the architecture here is old and beautiful. The wraught iron fences were works of art and the colors exploded off of the buildings.

Even the building Santa Cecilia, next to the hotel had its own style and uniqueness. The roads were narrow and full of character, even small ferral dogs and cats. The fences were interesting, where they had broken glass cemented on top to keep people from climbing over them.
