La Laguna and Coffee Land

So I didn't get to Montana Selva Negra yesterday like I said I would, instead I followed Colin to a cute Cabana on La Laguna (huge volcano crater filled with clear fresh water and surrounded by peaceful forest) which was FILLED with other Peace Corp folks. After a day of swimming, chilling in hammocks, watching The Office (I know I know, but these Peace Corp folks don't get to have a TV and DVD player that often) and grilling delicious eats though, it was time to move on and finally get separated from my fab translator and guide (thanks Colin!) to do some solo traveling.

Thus far I have had fantastic luck with getting on and off all the right busses at all the right times, and thus have made it to a world full of coffee, organic veggies, German Chalets (go figure), monkeys, birds, and other fab cloud forest stuff. Having only been here for a couple daylight hours I can't report much yet, except that the food is delicious and clearly very German inspired (I'm going to get fat if I stay here too long).

More to come tomorrow after I do my farm tour and wander the lovely hiking trails.
