The Coffee Region

July 22, 2012 

Armenia is the coffee region. Oddly, instead of going to an authentic coffee farm, we visited Parque Nacional del Cafe (the Six Flags of Armenia!) Emily & I took advantage of some free time and acted like children riding on the roller coasters, getting soaked on log flumes, and laughing through it all!

The scenery around the park was amazing. We saw some banana trees.

A few coffee plants 

We went out of the coffee park (we didn't want to eat at a food court) and had an authentic Colombian lunch.
