William: Hi there! A new update on our whereabouts. Just moved over to Merida after a long drive from Cancun. Empty roads giving you a weird feeling.

William: We had all possible difficulties finding our airbnb accommodation as its address was like Marida, Caucel, Avenida 68, Puerta Sisal, Calle 31, Avenida Caucel 68, Calle 3/2419 B. After much asking around, as we don't have a navigation system here, and consulting our paltry maps, we gave up and phoned our host who navigated us to the house, which turned out to be located in a semi-fenced residential area outside the city. Quite a pretty and comfy place for that and entirely for us alone.

William: So we finally had a goodnight's sleep and are looking forward to do some sightseeing in the capital of Yucatan.
Helen: A big hello to you both, bold and undaunted travellers! Thanks for the info, we thought you'd got stuck in some ritzy place on the way from Cancun. :-))
William: No ritzy places on the way, rather rotten places and even worse signposting. We'd intended to take a country road to avoid paying the motorway toll but somehow ended up on their autovía de peaje anyway.
Helen: How much?
William: 12. Bastards!
Helen: You'll get over it. And how much do you pay for this sweet little house in Caucel?
William: Only 45 a night plus some fees but it's on the western side of the city, that is the opposite direction to most of such attractions as Maya temples and haciendas. Also far from the ocean coast. Praised be the angel who told me to rent a car. So in fact nothing to complain about.
Helen: So keep it up!
William and his companion were driving from Cancun to Merida. Despite the difficulties, they found their Airbnb accommodation. Now, they have a plan to do some sightseeing in the capital of Yucatan.
