Cuba!

 

Remember when I went to Cuba for Katie and Jason’s wedding?  Well, I’d love to share a little more of our time there with you.  Because it was awesome.  The above picture is my favourite from the trip, snapped on the front steps of the capital. 

 

The cars!  The cars in Cuba are absolutely incredible.  Due to regulations that about the age of cars that private citizens are allowed to own, the country is full of these beautiful old cars that have been painstakingly restored and maintained.  I don’t even care about cars, and I’d love to be driving this gorgeous thing around.

 

 

 

 

 

Well, it wouldn’t really be Cuba without it, would it?

See that giant pink building?  That was Hemingway’s haunt when he was in Havana.  So of course we had to pop up to the rooftop bar to enjoy his favourite drink…

 

Mojitos!

Craig and I getting to know Hemingway a little better.  Purely an educational experience. 

If you visit Cuba, there’s one thing you’ll hear constantly throughout the week, at least a few times a day: Guantanamera.  It’s a famous Cuban song about a girl from Guantanamo.  I’m pretty sure these guys played it twice, actually.
