The third and last day in Palenque was an easy going one. We woke up around 10 am, and since Mihai was starting to feel better, we took off to check out two waterfalls sites. First, we drove 60 km back towards San Cristobal, to a site called Agua Azul. The name is self-explanatory in Spanish, meaning ''blue water''. Pretty cool spot, although the water was a bit chilly to swim in.
On the way back from Agua Azul, we stopped by the Misol-Ha waterfalls, which are only 16 km away from Palenque. It's a nice site, but not that impressive neither, especially if you've been to Niagara previously. Someone later told me that some of the scenes from the original Predator movie were shot here.

ReplyDeleteDerek, we made a last minute plan change, and decided to skip Xela and move on to Honduras. I will look into taking Spanish lessons in Nicaragua, where we want to spend about 2 weeks. Ill keep track of your progress. See you down the road!
