Travel route: Laredo crossing to the Yucatan
We're planning on crossing the border in Laredo. Our goal is to get into the Yucatan but want to avoid the northeastern route (apparently boring and slow roads). Since I'd love to visit Teotihuaca...

We crossed at Laredo the last two years: Laredo, Saltillo (via Monterrey Quota), Matehuala, Queretaro. . . . A couple of years ago we went all the way to the Yucatan.
From the Columbia crossing at Laredo, if you cross by 8:00 or 8:30 you can make Matehuala on the first night if you are pressed for time then a reasonable run to Queretaro.
The blog has pretty good directions for the La Fuente hotel in Saltillo if you decide to stop there, Let me know if you need more explicit directions for Midway Inn at Matehuala, we missed the left turn the first year! The entry for Queretaro also has detailed directions for the Juricilla inn just north of Queretaro.
Here is our Blog It lists most from most recent post backwards so you will need to scroll down to the pertinent pages. You can also look back to previous years for details on our Yucatan trip.
