Palenque (part 1) - Nov 8

Got the first class bus to Palenque today along with some people from the hostel in San Cristobal (Keely - English girl, Greg - English and an Aussie guy who´s name I have forgot), I enjoyed the mountain scenery as we wound our way there.

My first impression of Palenque (the town), was that it looked very western and had the feel of a bit of a tourist trap. We had been recommended to stay in El Pachan which was apparently like being in the jungle so we all jumped in a cab and headed there. We had a look at some rooms but I thought the cabañas seemed more fun, so we booked a spot in the "Jungle Palace".
