Party like it's 1999
... we found a fabulous little hostal called Hospedaje Oceano, run by an amazing couple. What a relief!
The following days we dealt with the aftermath of the partying. Trash and broken bottles all over town and the beach. It was so sad to see. The food though, was amazing. Unfortunately Josh and the Peruvian cuisine didn't really get a long and he got a taste of Manco Inca's revenge (round #2). Down for two days. Boo. I on the other hand, ...
Kultur und Geschichte
In Huanchaco war es uns dann doch zu ruhig, also haben wir beschlossen in die Stadt umzuziehen. Das war eine tolle Entscheidung, denn so haben wir ein herrliches koloniales Hotel gefunden.

Sand dunes, ruins and the middle of nowhere
After leaving Mancora we stopped in two places to see a Museum and some Pre-Colombian ruins. The first stop was for the museum in Chiclayo (which was apparently the best museum in all of Peru). When we arrived in Chiclayo (on a bus we got ripped off for) we were greeted by 30 taxi drivers who broke into an all out competition to win us over when we arrived. Literally, we started following one guy to his car, ...
