We got on the R2 bus and went to Mercado 28.  

There we bought tour tickets for Chichen Itza for $38 each.  At Club Med they cost $105 each.  The tours were the same.

Mercado 28 is a bazaar with hundreds of shops.  Nick knacks. Ceramic fish.

We weren't sure that the $38 deal was not a fraud.  We waited 10 minutes after the Club Med bus left and then a van arrived for us.  We were taken to a bus station combined with a folkloric market.

Then we were on the road in a double decker bus with a bathroom.

Our English speaking guide telling us not to exceed #1 in the toilet..
Right here a van stopped and we picked up some English tourists.  Then "...a su derecha"
First stop was a Spanish colonial town, Valladolid.  We didn't get out of the bus.
Next stop was a Mayan Village Co-op store that sold handicrafts made by the villagers.  Each person was assigned a buying assistant.  He walked around with us and explained which cousin made what artifact.

He told us we would get a discount for speaking Spanish and a bigger discount for speaking Mayan.

He was a short guy, like most Mayans.

More crafts.
The Mayans built the co-op stores because vendors were barred from Chichen Itza.

In the Mayan village vendors chase potential buyers.
