Togo Photo Diary Day 9


Coffee beans along the path to the waterfall.  The red beans are ready for harvest.  They have been cutting all of the underbrush with machettes (coup coup) to prepare for the upcoming harvest.


Koku harvested a cacoa from a tree for us to suck on the seeds.  The seeds can be used to make cocoa powder, but the seeds taste very sour when they are fresh.




Papaya trees.
In the upper part of the picture you can see the top of the waterfall and the bottom is in the lower left.  We were only able to see the a little bit at the bottom, because the foliage was very thick at this time of the year (the rainy season).

  1. the top part you can see in the second-to-last picture... one day I'll take you there. It's one of the most gorgeous places in Togo, and one of my favorite!!
