2 days As An Agra-Tourist Down on the Farm

Sorry to disappear on you, but I've just returned from my home stay with Don Fernando and Donna Lydia on a tilapia farm and dairy in the Guacimo area of Costa Rica. On the farm we planted trees as part of a reforestation project. We fed the fish and we played alot of Dominos (no TV on the farm, asleep by 9PM up by 5am...YIKES! I've never been more glad I'm a teacher and not a farmer). We also learned all about Biodigesters, something I never expected to learn about, EVER!!!!! All in all, it was an experience that helped me appreciate all the great opportunities and comforts I have every day, and to think about what I take for granted, as well as, ways I could waste less and conserve more.
