Special Update: Extreme Palenque

Heyyo! Just got into Panama yesterday... today we begin the long and arduous process of selling the car.  Currently we got 3 options: 1) Sell it to a used car lot, they cover import taxes; 2) Bring it to a wrecker and get exit stamped as having been in a accident; 3) Leave it with an Aduana, they get to keep the car when we don't come back in 6 months... We see how this starts to shake down today.

Missing home a bit now, but definately ready to get out of Central America and into the south. Something about having to get out of paying bribes with every other "Official" is starting to get a bit wearing. Eventually we'll post an updated budget so anyone else whose attempting something like this can have a benchmark. So far we're pretty close to being on mark...

Uploading two vids today, #1 is of Palenque, the massive ruins up in Chiapas, Mexico. It includes a plethora of interesting facts by yours truely. #2 Covers our missadventure trying to cross to Tikal in Guatemala. Road was innundated. 15 hour detour. You get the picture. 
Let us know how life is with you. 
Cheers,
B
