Seascapes & an old adobe city

---

We arrived in Peru yesterday! We have been meeting up with lots of fellow travellers from Holland, Germany, and France. We took the red eye bus - 11pm to 9 am to Peru from Ecuador. Crossing the border was interesting....we had to get off the bus at 4 am and sit outside for 2 hours while the immigration officer watched movie videos....We then got to Piura and stayed for only 2 hours, then we were off to Trujillo, Peru. We arrived in Trujillo at 8pm last night and took a taxi to Huanchaco... a small fishing/surfing village just outside the city. We randomly met up with 3 other travellers at the hostel we are staying.. Nayramp, it´s on the ocean! Joel ordered a pitcher of beer thinking it would be a tall beer last night. He felt it this morning.

Joel is famous down here. We went to an old inca ruin, CHan Chan. So was a school of around 30 kids who all wanted individual pictures with Joel and I. They were grabbing Joel´s shirt and wanted his autograph. IT was hilarious. The teachers wanted their pics with us too. They were nice and gave us a ride back to the main highway to the bus stop. They gave us plantana = bananas.

We are off to Huraz for more mountain scape.
