The North Coast

We didn't expect to be in the north coast in a matter of weeks. We've been in the north coast for one full day and like it better than the South Coast. We're in a town called Huanchaco.   It's a surfing town, and very fun and very safe. Yesterday Macenna the café/restaurant and watch the the afternoon go by right into the sunset.  In the morning we went to some ruins called the temple of the sun and the temple of the moon.  They are too pyramid ruins that interestingly were built five times and they just built right over the top of the old ones.  They were found in the 90s by some students who were doing archaeological walk.  They sat down to rest and a piece of dirt that was covering one of the pyramids fell to the ground and revealed a painted wall from the pyramid.  They began digging and they have about a quarter of the pyramid unearthed. After the tour of the pyramids,  our driver Fausto,  drove us around Trujillo showing us some sites and then on to Big Ben where we then sat and watched the afternoon go by. These are the only pictures I have right now on my cell phone, more to come......
