Hola! We have arrived in the Northern part of Peru! Now the next part of the adventure begins as we get to explore these amazing PRE-INKAN ruins of this area! We are in the city of Chiclayo and for starters went to the huge market here where there is a big Shaman's market! That was great and so interesting. I haven't seen so many herbs and herbal medicines in all of my life! I guess people come here from all over Peru to see these shaman's and get herbal remedies. It makes me realize that herbal medicine is very alive and well in some parts of the world! I think we have a lot to learn! Tomorrow we go to museum of the Lord of Sipan. This archeological dig is said to rival that of King Tut! Look for photos to come!
