Day 29 Rest day in Huanuco

Well another rest day and the usual sort of pattern, get up when you feel like, go find some breakfast, do some computer stuff, go find some lunch, more computer stuff, have a nap, watch the tuk-tuks, go find some dinner and come back write blog before going to bed.  Notice anything different?
Yes, I did not clean my bike, in fact I did not even look at it today, all I will do is lubricate the chain in the morning - I just wanted a complete day away from the bike!
Oh and the other difference, the tuk-tuks!  Peru has a lot of them but outside our hotel the roads are quite narrow and there is a crossroads a few metres away.  Dodgem cars at the fair, banger racing and karting are just a foretaste of these guys here.  Put in sets of traffic lights and you have a mixture of sheer entertainment for a few minutes of unadulterated chaos to watch!
Red car surrounded by Tuk-Tuks!

This is a one-way street but watch the 2nd red Tuk-Tuk!
Yes, he's trying to get on past the pick-up, just a pedestrian to miss!
