Relaxation Day in Coban

Elena and Lori getting a tour of a coffee plantation in Coban.
Needed some downtime after that long day of adventure. We toured the coffee plantation right around the corner from our hotel. Carmen, our guide, gave us an informative tour and one of the better cups of coffee we've had on this trip. Although Guatemala is a big coffee producer, they seem to like to drink it weak here. This finca was started by Germans over 100 years ago. The tour also included other crops from this area: cardamom, banana, papaya and guava. The rest of the day we relaxed at the hotel, and I blogged and did email while it poured rain outside.
