Palenque to Cancun, Mexico. June - July 2014.

We had only days before our flight when we arrived in Palenque, Mexico. We stayed in a well-equipped and well-run hostel which was inhabited by a strange assortment of people. We spent a day at the Mayan ruins and, when we returned to the hostel, watched Mexico play their last in the World Cup.

Our final central America days were spent in chilled out Cancun. I'd heard it was such a terrible place but I disagree, it was fine, though we didn't venture into the hotel zone. The square near our hostel(s) was lined with excellent Mexican food stalls, so we tried to fatten ourselves up in preparation for the States.
