I was all set to write about the Palenque ruins today, but that's a big post with a lot of photos, and time kind of got away from me on a busy day, so this will be a shorter, simpler post with a potpourri of photos from around town during our stay. Palenque was unlike the cities we'd been too so far -- no brightly colored colonial buildings in a centro historico district and a bit grittier. But even though it was not as beautiful, we always felt safe walking around (including at night). This was a normal city where folks were just out and about living their lives. If the ruins were not so close by, they'd probably never even see a tourist. Stay tuned for more on Palenque!

Hi Barry and Emily, I read your blog daily as I would like to retire in Belize. I just want you to know how much I am enjoying following this Mexico trip. Thank you so much for doing this! I hope to meet you both some day and I'll treat us to a couple bottles of good wine!!! Kind regards, Tracey - Chicago
