Bike Trip Day 5 ... Havana

Havana - Karen and I at the Water, originally uploaded by girl from finito.

The next day we returned to Havana and took a walking tour to the old city. I had such a fabulous time I really didn’t want to go back to Canada, especially since it was 28 degrees in Cuba and –28 in Toronto. Oh well.

After a few days at the resort we traveled by bus to Havana. It was a little bit of a trial as we didn't realize we needed to reserve our spot on the bus the day before. Luckily there was a second bus, and some other travellers who spoke a little spanish to help us get on. There we stayed in a beautiful hotel that overlooked the Macelon, the seaside road.



At night we went to live music concerts including the Buena Vista Social Club. Cuba has such excellent musicians and we were impressed unfortunatly the food left a lot to be desired... a lot of pork and beans and rice.. all a little dry. We had a great time exploring the city and I took a lot of photos of the old cars for my dad.
