We left Lima quite early on Easter Saturday and had an 8 hour truck day. We got to a nice little beach to spend the night. Slept on a concrete slab outside, got a little wet by some rain and were kept up till quite late by another party drinking and then got woken up by more drunks at 3am... so an eventful night.
Left early the next morning, and by lunch time we were at the Chan Chan ruins. It is the biggest remaining site of a massive city built by the Chimor people. They were conquered by the Incas in 1470. It was very interesting and some of the decorations they used were amazing. We then shopped for dinner and headed to a hostel on the beach. Camping again but had lovely hot showers...
Left early the next day again for another 10 hour truck day to get to Punta Sal where we have spent the last two days lazing on the beach. There is nothing really around and the water is lovely, the weather is lovely and the food is brilliant! we've had great fish and chips, prawns and on tonights menu is fire baked potatoes and spit roast chicken...
Beach volleyball has been played, many beers have been had and the sunsets are amazing! So here are the pictures!
Lots of love.
Ps. crossing the equator soon and nearly in Equador!
