A Modest Sign Welcomed Visitors
A modest sign on the side of their stables was all that advertised the location.

Cart Shelter Inside Stable Yard
Their stables surrounded a fenced yard in the center of which was a shelter for their two carts. One of those carts was oxen drawn for the transport of tourists.

Yard In Front Of Stables
The view on the road into the farm. To the left were the stables. Ahead was a large, round fire pit. To the right was a building that housed the pigs. A dog was just then headed inside that building.

Crops Included Pineapple
The farm was surrounded by acres of cultivated land and grassy fields where cows and horses could graze. In the immediate foreground were pineapple plants and young lime trees. Beyond were fields of beans.

At End Of Day Oxen Retired
As the day wound down to a close, the oxen were led back into the stables for the night. We had no idea why one man would carry a board.

Dog Relaxed Between Door And Windows
A large, black farm-dog relaxed that afternoon on the narrow porch of a farm building. It lay between a locked door and two shuttered windows over which was hung a bull's skull. In the center of it all was a small "G Adventures" sign.

A Grave Site
A grave had been dug, and someone or something had been buried there. This was just outside the farm proper and next to the pole trees with hammocks .
