June 22, 2005Hurraz-a-ma-taz!
So i split from Hurraz and caught a rather shitty night bus to Trujillo. This night bus didnt have AC and the fuckin Peruvians got mad everytime i opened the window...apparently they are really keen on a hot stuffy bus that lacks proper air circulation. Anyways, I slept like a champ, probably because i was surfing earlier in the day fighting that mean spirited Humbolt current. I arrived in Trujillo and caught a collectivo to Huancho a chill nearby fishing village. I droped my stuff off at a hostal because I was hell bent on taking another night bus for Hurraz that night. I met some other travelers who just left Mancura, along with some people that i met in Banos Equador, then it dawned on me that they dont call this the Gringo Trail for nothing. So i ended up chillin with some cool cats from Holland. We went to town and bought our tickets for Hurraz and had lunch, then i split to see the ruins of Chan Chan. Chan Chan is a huge mud brick city...never seen anything like it..it streched out for miles. Then went back to Huanchaco to grab my shit and head for Trujillo to catch my night bus, which had AC/TV with movies/ and some nice reclining chairs, their was even a chick serving food and drink on the bus, well worth the extra $5.
