Road to Chichen Itza


We awoke the next day with a refreshed vigor that you couldn't really explain. Maybe almost like a new awakening or lease on life, from surviving all of the histeria and stress of a catagory 5 Hurricane coming at us. We loaded up the rental car and headed back to Cancun with a stop off at Chichen Itza, but there was one little problem we couldn't read the road signs. Who thunk that! I thought if we got a map from the front desk I could visually from the map see the area's to turn and hopefully the streets had numbers.

Luckly, the streets in downtown were numbered and we chose to go down the old highway instead of the turnpike to see some of the country side and the other side of Mexico. We only got lost once and went down the wrong way on a one way street written in spanish. opps those crazy gringos!! I learned something from working at UPS, it helps to ask for directions, but in English it was intresting. Thank goodness for the visual map of Merida we had. It help break the language barrier us snobby American's have of knowing only one language.
