Day 2 - Havana

What better way to begin our time in Cuba, than with a tour of old Havana.  We spent much of the morning doing a walking tour of the old part of the city.  Through years of hardship and neglect, much of Havana’s buildings and infrastructure, and that of the country itself, have been slowly deteriorating.  There is a constant repair work being done.  The oldest and perhaps most important part of the city has been well-maintained and it was interesting to walk through it and learn something of Havana’s history.






After this we had a private lunch waiting for us at a restaurant.  The freshly made pineapple juice was fantastic!
Finally, it was off to the beach – something everyone was waiting for.



And then we had our first informal performance of the tour.  The hotel lobby.  A good venue to just get out the cobwebs.



Can’t wait for tomorrow.
