Notes
As happened more than 1,000 years, the equinox in the temple of kuku
can at Chichen Itza, still touching the hearts of the spectators. In these
times of year, the play of light and shadow in the temple creates this
optical illusion: that of a snake that moves. Thousands of enthusiasts
gather at Chichen Itza to experience the magic of Maya to observe the
snake down the temple.

Palenque is considered one of the most important of Chiapas, as
averitable explosion of adventure is a place to discover and
appreciate ancient archeological treasures of the Mayan culture,
where there are many facilities for transportation from one place
to another, knowing beautiful scenery and surprised with the
customs and traditions of Chiapas.
Palenque is one of the most interesting archaeological sites of
Mexico, to know is to discover the soul of the Mayan world, is

It is a little out of range for diving, because even without a spectacular
visibility, offers intricate maze of roots and trunks intertwined and
overlapping, gaps of various sizes and rock formations on the walls
with inclinations between vertical and negative, with a background is
hidden in the distance (more than 90m deep), has to be inviting caves
penetrated, provided they have expert guides and the right training.
The cenote is a destination that can be visited many times, because if
one takes the precaution of listing each route or area visited, different
routes can be planned and different areas on each dive. At first, our
experience was limited to practices novice with shallow dives of 40 to
60 ft. (12 to 18 m.), today; the dives are made in ranges from 100 to 130
ft. (30 to 40 m.), and navigate to the most remote point of entry

When your trips are one week, take always the fair that nothing is
missing and mos importantly, not leftover things.
Normally wear a shirt/polo shirt or a day, a set of underwear per
day, a sweater pair every couple of days (never less), two pairs of
shoes in total and an occasional piece of seasion as a swimsuit.
A Simple Rule
Do not ForgetIf you’re planning to attend one
recepcion or a party you should
carry a piece adequate for the
situation. Also be in mind that
most casino requiere carrying
American and some others a tie.
If you are cruising, there are
some gala dinners , forcing you
to incorporate in yout suitcase
clothes for the occasion.

Make a List
Before you pack, make a list of all the things that you will
take, including the less important as underwear, socks, hair
brush, etc It should also have objects on a bed or chair, so
you have a full view., Then you will know with certainly which
things are really over.
The Golden Rule
All the travelers experts know it ’s better carry coats and
heavy objects on top. For example, if we bring coat, you’d
carry it in hand (when we arrive we will grateful) that in the
suitcase. This tip reduce the volume in the suitcase.
Laundry
In 99% of tourist destinations
will find a laundry. Avoids
carrying tons of clothes when
you can carry only 2 or 3
and washing them. Although
it is more expensive, is a
saving of weight and an
extra comfort.
SouvenirsIf you’re of those who can not stop making gift, we recommend
to buy regional food like candy, canned whatever you have
drawn your attention. In return, you can invite your friends to try
the food.

Little ThingsThe small and insignificant things are responsible for much of
the weight of our suitcase. It is absurd to bring a bottle of
colony or a liter of shampoo or gel. Buy smaller versions of
these products and remember, these should always be
billed.
Maps, Guides and Magazines
Everything is paper (believe or not) ends
up being the heaviest. One solution is to
take the plane and write in a notebook
or on an email all the information you
need.
Our last AdvicesReduce the weight of the suitcase gives you more freedom of
motion, so you can do whatever you want without depending
on your bags. Even if you go by car, remove heavy elements

rackets, and things that make a pleasant trip.
If the problemn is the weight of the suitcase hurts you when you
go from one side to another and you can’t do anything to
make your suitcase lighter. You can fix it. There are carts
lagguage carrier with wheels and practical system to hold your
suitcases and bring them wherever you want.
