M: Welcome back to the program Lori Gold!  You can pretty well host the show today because you are super familiar with it by now!
L: Lol Megan, you are HILARIOUS ???? lol

M: Lori, for listeners or viewers that have not heard your past episodes can you recap them for us briefly?
L: We’ve spoken about the fabulous Atelier Playa Mujeres, about the magical cork forest and the majestic whale sharks!

M: Now let's run today's episode a bit like a round up. Let's call it Lori's top five Yucatan State Destinations.
L: Okay! Vamos!

M: Before we get started can you set some expectations for driving in Mexico? (What side do they drive on?  Is it mph or kpm?  Similar road signs? Signs in English?
L: Right side, same as Canada/US. It is Kilometers per hour and it does change frequently and quickly. Road signs are in Spanish but there aren’t many besides just the names of places. Google maps is your friend!

M: As far as safety goes can you set the tone or give a few warnings?  I think there are stigmas about road tripping and safety in Mexico.  How can you frame this for us?
L: Things to note: speed bumps or topes, no cell phone reception, no gas stations, tolls in cash/pesos only. I think there are definitely areas to be concerned about, but Yucatan is I think the safest state in Mexico so I don’t have any concerns about this area specifically.

M: Let's have number five in Lori's Top Five Destinations for Roadtripping the Yucatan State on Mexico!
L: Espita

M: Come on four!  Where are we headed?
L: Ek Balam

M: Down to three!  What is this one?
L: Rio Lagartos and San Felipe

M: Getting close to number one!  What is at two for your top five list?
L: Valladolid

M: Finally we are at number one!  Where are we and why is this one on your Yucatan state must see list!?
L: Holbox

M: Anything else we should include before we close out the podcast?
L: There are a lot of other places I didn’t mention in the Yucatan state, and also Quintana Roo-Merida, Izamal, Mahaual, Bacalar, etc. This podcast has focused on the road trip I most recently did, but there are so many other incredible places around here!
