Day 58 - Chiclayo to Huaraz
Oh my god - absolutely exhausted, drained, but very happy!
Started at 11am and drove till 5pm through the desert with tiring
cross winds. We stopped for lunch in Trujillo where I ate too much.
Not good because we passed through a port town called Chimbote that
had an unbelievable stench that turned my stomach inside out, as well
as it’s contents :(
Around 5pm we took a left to start climbing up to Huaraz. The road was
absolutely stunning. Then The asphalt disappeared. Fun! 30 miles to
the town - no problem!
3 hours later, dark, exhausted, dizzy from the altitude (4,000m -
12,000ft), we arrived. We seriously considered camping on the side of
the road. As we entered town a cop pulled us over but didn’t even
bother asking for documents when he saw how tired we were :)
Now at the Andino Club hotel having dinner :)
Ufff!!
