After lunch in Villahermosa, I started the engine from my rental car. And he went on with a little delay. So, I drove the remaining two and a half hours until I arrived in Palenque in front of the hotel. There I parked the car for the next two nights and booked a tour for the next day. I also went for a short walk in the city and enjoyed my dinner.
The onward journey to Mexico, Yucatan started early in the morning. The flight from Costa Rica was short and the border control went quickly. However, it took 2 hours to check the luggage. Extremely many people arrived in Cancun. I quickly found the place where I could pick up the rental car. I also waited about 1.5 hours there. Finally, I was able to take the VW Passat, my companion, for the next 2.5 weeks.
