Here are some pics: The traditional peruvian fishing boat, called Cabaito toertiga, which have been used esentially unchanged since at least the moche culture 200 years ago.
The reed boats drying in the sun.
In you look closely at this relief at the moche pyramid (Huaca de la lun) you can see clearly one of the reed boats (upper left). The site dates back to around 200 years ago.

The humming bird who visits the garden of the house were we stay everyday.
We were lucky enough to arrive in Huanchaco just before the carnival, the after party went on (officially) until 6am!
