Hi all
just a quick hello as internet access is short. We took a tour of a coffee plantation today. We were to meet a shuttle at a prearranged spot. At the right time up pulled a Unimog with seating for 16 in the bed. Too cool! At the plantation they had another 8 - 10 mogs and another ex military rig I didn't recognize. I will post pictures when I get home. We rode the mog around the place and then back to town. Our guide was a 17 year old guy from the US. I tried asking him if they ever used Power Wagons on the plantation. I got the bovine stare. Later I spoke with a Guatemalan guide who did know what a Power Wagon was. He said that they did used to use them but not so much anymore. He says they ars still used in construction occasionally.
Adios amigos
Tim
