Trujillo is a tiny town in a vast plain in Extremadura - extremely hard literal translation.  What made Pizarro and Hernan Cortez go to the west coast of South America in search of untold wealth and riches.  Today they would be known as terrorists.  Pizarros family home very modest.  Town full of immensely old buildings.  Storks nesting on the high buildings.
