Puerto Quetzal, Guatemala Photo Gallery
The port view from our balcony.
We toured Valhalla Macadamia Nut Farm.
The bloom for the nuts.
Can you see the nuts starting to grow where the blooms have fallen off.
A device used to pick up the nuts. They fall to the ground when they are ripe.
This machine would strip off the first shell. Like walnuts, macadamia nuts also have 2 shells.
They dry the nuts in these beds.
This sorted the nuts by size into different bags.
