Yesterday we organized a tour to two of the nearby waterfalls setting us each back $120 pesos. The bus took off at midday so we grabbed a late breakfast in the restaurant around the corner with the Swedish girls (My and Jennifer) and our crew of myself, Manu, Amelia, Dan (English guy) and Edwin.
We met some Dutch guys on the bus, Oleg and Ernst with a very cool and hot German girl named Carolina.
The first waterfall was Misol-Ha where the water cascaded 50 meters into a large rock pool. It was good fun swimming into the area where the falls hit the water and feeling the force of it.
We only spent 45 minutes here before having to get back into the van and headed an hour around twisting mountain roads to Agua Azul which is another place to view several waterfalls.
This was cool, with cascading water falling into turquoise rockpools with rope swings and lots of drinking to be had.
We were here for a good 3 hours where everyone got along and no complaints. It was the perfect time to relax and watch Carolina… um, I mean those turquoise rock pools. We left the waterfalls at 5.30 to get back to Palenque where we hopped off at the bus station in town to find out prices and times to get to Guatemala tomorrow.
The Dutch guys, Carolina and Dan all had buses leaving this evening so we said our farewells and we headed back to the cabanas.
We bought some fuel for my stove that wasn’t quite right and it was difficult to keep it going so that we could boil all our eggs for breakfast and lunch. This took a very long time whilst we drank in the room.
We were going to head out to drink at a bar but we were all so tired and sat back and fell asleep to a film.
