Spice Tour

We took a tour of a spice farm today. It was so cool how they had so many different spices growing next to each other. And not only spices but fruits and trees as well. They had; teak trees, red mahogany trees, rice paddies, vanilla bean, cumin, ginger, tumeric, coffee, anato, lemongrass, star fruit, bread fruit, banana trees, coconut trees, cardamon, cloves, cinnamon, nutmeg, mace, and I'm sure I'm forgetting a few... We walked around the farm, which looked and felt like a rain forest, and then had lunch in a thatched roof patio thing in the middle of a spice farm. The food, once again, was fantastic. So many spices and flavors. Can't wait to get back to my hut and start learning to cook. Like actually cook.
