April 11: Morning Walk and Lab Work
Gaius ‘25 and Jennifer ‘25
Hola a todos!
Today was our third day in Cerro Punta. We began with a morning walk up to some of the terrace farms. We got to meet a few of the farmers who owned and worked in the field. We saw lots of potatoes, celery, and cabbage. We then got the opportunity to see a cleaning plant that processed and shipped produce to markets all across Panama. Mr Vega, who owned the plant, then allowed us to walk up and onto his farm. The view was spectacular, and we got to try some of the carrots that were being harvested. After our walk we returned to the hotel to relax and eat lunch. Then between 2 and 5 we worked on our individual lab reports. At 5:00 we broke out into small groups to eat dinner in the town or at the hotel. The day concluded with a beautiful rainbow.
