What I'd look like if I were a woman (possibly)
Arrived at the Punta Sal beach resort yesterday at around 9, after suffering a puncture roughly 10 minutes after we left our hotel in Huanchaco. Our spare was also kaput after it blew on the drive to Lima, which could have left us up shit creek, were it not for another Dragoman truck which was following on behind.

After a detour to a tyre yard, we got back on the road after about 2 hours, arriving at Punta Sal in our Halloween costumes to the general indifference of everyone there.

The next morning saw scenes reminiscent of Saving Private Ryan (or at the least, Shaving Ryan's Privates). The other Dragoman group had turned up late last night. I hadn't mentioned this before, but they got off on the wrong foot with some of us, mostly because they were complete tossers. Anyway, the deal with the beach we were camping on is that we also got a room where we could shower, get changed and keep stuff. The other Dragoman group had previously decided they were too special to have to camp (even though that's what half the trip is about, idiots) so they would stay the night in our

room. Without telling us. Jim, our driver thought we'd be OK with it, but with all our valuables in there, we unsurprisingly weren't. Cue a rant by Judy which left Jim looking a little queasy. Still, got the point across, and meant we didn't even have to pretend to be nice to the other group any more.

After this little episode, Judy, Ross, Lynette and myself played beach wars (basically beating each other up in the sea), which I was ace at. Then we drove down the road to Mancora, where the ladies surfing world championships were being held. Whilst there, we bought presents for Judy's birthday next week (she was 26 so we had to get her 26 presents for some reason - mum, don't get any ideas) and I ate some horrible vegetarian food. Then back to the beach for more R & R and getting snotty looks from the other group.
