We will ring in the New Year in a new country. So far Peru has been hot, dusty, crowded and chaotic. But the water is a fantastic refreshing temperature compared to the hot sun. The Peru - Ecuador border was basically a crowded highway with no control, or nothing stopping you from walking or driving back and forth. Luckily, we had a "Friend" help us through the whole process and get us on our way without costing us too much money. We are currently in Mancora, Peru camping and surfing until after the New Year when we will head further South and look for the longest left-breaking wave in the world. Feliz Navidad y un Prospero Año Nuevo.
