Costa Rica Day 9 Recollection
*Blogs do not involve day 1 which was travel day*
Today was Day 2 of our Weekend excursions and it was probably the most dismal one we had this weekend. We started by waking up at 6:30 and scrambled to get all that we needed, we then went to the coffee plantation and ate a wonderful buffet breakfast and were then showed how they pick coffee, how they peel the different layers of the coffee cherry, how to properly dry the bean, what percentage of moisture a bean must have, how to make different roasts, and how to make decaf coffee which was very interesting and they even explained how the exportation of the coffee beans work. Did you know they ship the beans to Hamburg, Germany to make decaf coffee and then they ship it back. After the tour we hit the gift shop where I picked up white chocolate covered coffee beans for my family to try. We then headed high up to the top of a mountain where we could go view the Volcano Poàs but unfortunately due to clouds we could not view the volcano crater and the lagoon that was near
