Arrived in Campeche mid afternoon, just in time for a nice ice cold cervesa from and ice cold glass, muy bueno!!
Campeche is an old colonial port, restored carefully to its former glory, most buildings in el centro are 17th and 18th century from the era when Spanish had a flourishing empire you can walk around the centre pretty quickly, so not much to see, but the buildings are beautiful, painted in bright sunshine colours.( have a look at the picture).
Temperature is a very cool 30 celcius plus, quite mild for the time of year.
Tomorrow we leave for Palenque, another ancient mayan temple complex, as large as chitzen itza, but less restored, more junglified.
