Hi again
I´m trying to keep this blog up to date.

We went to Chan Chan an incredible mud built city infact the largest Pre-Columbian city in South America it was built between c.850 and c.1470 and was the imperial capital until Chimor was conquered by the Inca in 15th Century. However the Inca´s did not build on it they left it as it originally was.

Hope you enjoy the pictures.

We stayed up the road by the sea when we arrived it was so cold and cloudy it was like being on an english beach.
Apart from the reed boats.

Stop it
Terrible show that - walking on 4000 year old mud... I've just got back to London from North America...it snowed there, it's storming sun here...go figure. Keep it strong, Candey is looking extremely retro, thumbs up from VanDerM.

Wow, Those are some giant shoes. Are they made as a sacrifice for the Inca sun god Clarksion?? Tell Candey to keep off that old mud. He's an absolute lability!
