Today we are leaving Palenque and heading towards Chetumal on a bay off the Caribbean Sea near the Belize border. While there we might get a chance to visit with sometimes Blogger and old hand Mexico RVer, Kathe Kirkbride. Kathe is presently working on an ambitious project in her Maricasa development on the beach a few miles from Chetumal. I have been keeping track of Kathe and her land development project for some time now and will enjoy meeting her and seeing her project first hand. I hope she is home.
We did not make it all the way to Chetumal today and are parked for the night in a roadside restaurant in Becan, near the Campeche / Quintana Roo State Line. I noticed a sign pointing to some ruins only a half a kilometre off the highway and just might go for a walk there in the morning. We are only a couple of hours from Chetumal so I will have some time to spare in the morning.
Our parking place is very interesting! There is a large tope on the road beside us and it is amazing how many people do not see it! There is often a squeal of rubber and a crash as someone hits the tope at high speed. A large truck hit it an hour ago and he is still parked down the highway with his flashers on. I suspect he blew a couple of tires. Luckily, there is a 24 hour tire service right beside the tope.
