Being in Havana often feels like stepping back in time.

More Rum Please.

I liked the "General Electric" logo in this bar.

Music in Trinidad

The musicians were on break when I snapped this pic.

Good Friday in Trinidad comes with Procession.

The evening of Good Friday includes a procession of Christ and friends around the city.

I made a new friend in Vinales!

This one crawled right into my lap and made itself at home during the "How to make a Cuban cigar" demonstration.

Vedado, Cuba.

The tall building called Fosca is a source of pride for some Cubans. The building I am told has "everything" and is all paid for by the government, with 20% of it belonging to low income households. "In Cuba we are only allowed one place to live" a Cuban told me.

One of Hemingway's old hide outs.

When you enter Floridita it smells like how you imagine a Cuban bar should smell - of tobacco and rum. It was like stepping back in time to the days when Hemingway used to bar tend there.

Old Havana

Walking down the streets of Old Havana you can find old colonial buildings that have not been taken care of in 50+ years.

Cuba and Cars

Because of the embargo, few new cars have been introduced to Cuba leaving these classic cars as some of the only options for personal transportation. It is not uncommon to see men out working on their cars like the one shown here.
