Today we visited two coffee farms and another farm that is getting ready to grow coffee. They all use native trees to shade the coffee bushes and organic methods of farming. The giant tortoises roam freely around the farms. It was really great seeing them. I really wanted to touch one but it is illegal. You may get no closer than 3 meters to each tortoise. We planted some native trees and there was one tortoise right there in the way so we got to be closer to that one. Since none of my students' comments have anything to do with my blog, I have a challenge for you. Look at my blog and find out three of the animals I swam with. Send me a comment at the end of this posting and put your first name on it so I know who is deserving of praise. I look forward to reading your comments, especially the ones that respond to something I posted!
