Did the cultural thing today. Chan Chan is a World Heritage Site but found the Temple of the Moon more captivating. It is older but better preserved as they built 5 subsequent temples, one over the other, and when excavated, you are able to see actual art and architecture dating from the time of Christ. Hired private guides for both sites who significantly contributing to making sites interesting.
Spent an hour talking with some Italians over breakfast who were in southern Peru last week - got some great tips.
The adobe structures in foto background are part of an old city along a fertile river region just inland from Trujillo.
Tomorrow I travel.
