Bright and not so early the next morning (2 hour time difference) we headed out to Merida about 10 AM took the Cota (toll) roads, it is about a 3 hour drive. I had previously booked our hotel having stayed there once before. Hotel Caribe. Fantastic location one block from the town center and easy walking distance all around the city. Great price for the hotel something like 45.00 a night. Nothing fancy but clean, nice courtyard and the pool was right outside our door.
Spent all day Sunday in Merida they close the streets around the center and have craft fair and lots of food to choose from. I bought a beautiful painting of a pair of parrots and this awesome bedspread all hand made.
Next day was Celestun - took a boat ride to see the Flamingos. Was so awesome to see them in their natural habitat.
Next day a day trip to Sisal - honestly not much there and it was windy so we made a short day of that trip.
On to Valladidlod - Stayed again at a very nice hotel right on the main square El Mason del Marques was about $65.00 per night and included breakfast. What a clean nice little city. Stayed a couple nights here and visited a Cenote the church a chocolate factory
Last Stop was Isla Holbox - quaint little island - still all sand streets and nothing much to do but relax and enjoy the time off
Of course I just had to stop at the fantastic nursery's on the way home for plants -- YAY
Made it back to Isla just in time to celebrate my mother in-laws 80th birthday with all her children. But that is another post.
