Still Unable to Warm Up to Peru...

This is our 3rd day in Chiclayo and the best part of the city is our hotel room.  Another bus trip to Pimentel was again anti climactic but okay.

Here is our take on Peru as of today...

1. The place is dirty, stray barking dogs everywhere, all hours of the day and night.  Makes sleeping painful if not           impossible. Extremely noisy.  A bylaw against horn honking would be a great first step.
2. Terrible Roads.  In many areas you would swear your in Iraq or Afghanistan!
3. Disrespectful drivers, especially to pedestrians.  It appears that vehicle traffic holds priority over pedestrians and         when crossing the roads even at intersections, you are taking your life in your hands.
4. Crappy food, unlike the reports we have heard about the great food in Peru.
5. You have to go with the inter provincial bus companies as the local bus companies are pretty brutal (dirty and             smells of baby puke & sometimes worse).  We will have more to report after our first class tickets with Cruz Del         Sur tomorrow.
6. Hopefully things will change after our new destination tomorrow in Haunchaco or we will start making fast tracks to     Chile.
