Women working the vanilla crop. They will only flower for a few hours each day and must be hand pollinated during this time or they will not produce the beans.
Vanilla plants
Pollination
Pepper vines growing on the trees.
Coffee drying in the sun
Some sort of coffee been husker.
Guards at the drying bed. I wish I had a pic of them firing the antique rifle. Looked like it was more likely to just explode in your hands.
Sunset
Kids angling for the big one.
One morning we hiked up to a small temple in the middle of nowhere.
A little rest after the hike. Even at 8am the sun can feel pretty harsh.
We had the temple to ourselves
