We left Mancora thinking we would spend a few more nights on a beach 15 mins away called Los Organos so we got the bus there and it was feral so we got the next bus out of there to the only place this bus company went to called Piura.
Pirua is a small transport town it was in the Lonley Planet so we kinda had an idea what we were getting into. We found a cheap hostel in the center which was nice and we just had a nice evening with pizzas and beers.
The next day we checked out the only few tourist things there are to do there. Firstly a sailors mueseum and then the gold museum it was a good way to kill the day before our 1pm bus to our next town Chiclayo only 3 hours away.
