We also took a boat trip down the river to watch the Flamingos. Funny thing was, it was quite a long boat ride (which was fine) but about a quarter mile before the birds we passed under a small bridge that we had driven across! LOL We only saw a few flamingos there, but thousands at Celestun.
We spent about 7 or 8 years traveling the Yucatan. Usually would spend a week to two diving and on the beach and a week or two driving around. Cheapest hotel we ever stayed in was at Peto and it was $5 a night and worth every penny but not one more! Almost decided to sleep in the car in the enclosed parking lot instead of the bed.
Aukumal was our favorite beach location for years then later Puerto Morelos. In later years we would make one trip in the summer and one in the winter.
We were into Mayan ruins back then.
