Here in western KY we are interested in this long Mexico trip as it has been awhile since we have been there. We have been to Palenque five times and Cozumel diving 15 times. Once rode the train from Laredo to Merida...that was a few years ago...I would say we are 50-50. Biggest obstacle is our 2008 Ford diesel pickup burns supposedly only low sulfur diesel, although on a one week trip to northern Mexico 5-6 years ago we did burn several tanks of Mexico normal diesel with no ill effects....Archaeology sites, sun, beaches, tropics, markets, snorkling these days, will be 69 yrs old by then, rural areas, local sites, canyons, springs, caves and we would be especially interested in Tikal and Calacmul (sp). We have driven to Cozumel once. Driven to the Yucatan 3 times, and flew and rented cars the others. Spanish so so, i.e., not so hot...Little current practice. However, we love birding and photography. Would love to bird again at Palenque, drive the road to San Cristobal, see the Mot-Mots once again at the Sacred Well at Chichen Itza and much more....May be able to talk an archaelogist and fluent Spanish speaker as well as accomplished Mexico traveler for decades to go with us especially if I pick up the fuel, etc....On Ward Thru the Fog...The Truckcamper from Browder, KY..pls send personal msg with ph # and I will call.
