Trujillo

Left Huaraz to head north to Ecuador. There are warning signs everywhere at the bus station about swine flu and what symptoms to look out for. Went down the list and I think I have had every single symptom in the last 2 days....lol.

We are currently stuck in a town called Trujillo. The strikes and road blocks have started again so earlier buses are cancelled and we can´t even make it via taxi to the local ancient ruins and pyramids which are meant to be pretty awesome. So that´s the reason for the bulk blog and

A few unsolved riddles about Peru....

- Every morning without fail there is a gigantic themepark length queue outside of the banks, with tons of locals waiting in line. What´s going on!?!? Surely if this is the system they are wasting millions of hours.

- When you go in to a restaurant in Peru and order your meal they don´t seem to bring your drink until they have prepared and brought you your main course (30 mins later). Why!?!? It just makes sense for a million reasons, not in the least profit from selling more drinks.

- HOW DID THEY NOT MANAGE TO INVENT THE WHEEL!?!?!?
