Coba.

Still in our hire car we drove onto more Mayan ruins, this time located at the ancient site of Coba. This time the ruins were inland in the jungle. The best part of the ruins was that we could actually scale and climb them. The worst part (for Kelly) was seeing the tarantulas crossing the roads on the way home. Yikes!

Tulum.

We were a bit more excited than usual as we had hired a car and got to drive down the coast to the ruins of Tulum. The unique thing about these ruins are that they are built on the edge of a cliff and look out over the ocean. We even got to walk down onto the beach and take a quick swim to cool down.

La Isla Mujures.

Today we went on a booze cruise to La Isla Mujures off the coast of Cancun. The tour was all inclusive and everything was planned for us.  It was a chance for us to relax, have a drink, chill out on the beach and enjoy the entertainment.

Chicken Pizza.

Today we went to the Mayan ruins of Chichen Itza. The pyramid itself was overwhelmingly impressive and it's the 3rd of the 7 Wonders of the World that we have visited so far on our travels. Unfortunately you are no longer able to climb the pyramid but it definitely didn't take anything away from the experience.

Spring Break bitches!

We flew straight into Cancun, Mexico expecting to find a bit of a trashy resort but loved it straight away. The beaches are beautiful and the water is the brightest shade of turquoise. It's definitely not the best place for backpackers so for the next we we splashed out a little, booked into a nice hotel and went out every night.

Central America.

A new day, a new continent. We are now in Panama City in Central America. The city itself was a bit of a suprise to us. It is very modern and extremely new and clean. There were lots of high-rise blocks, shopping malls and a big american influence. We could definitely see a big change from South America.

Snor- Kel & Zak.

Today we spent the day in and under the water. We snorkelled around the reefs and even on a sunken ship near one of the islands. We treated ourselves to a little waterproof camera and had fun taking pictures of all the fish. The only problem was getting them to stay still long enough to get a photo of them!
