Cuban Entertainment

Music is such strong part of the Cuban culture. Singing, dancing, playing instruments - they are all a big part of their lives. We were serenaded an most meals, taken to many performances just for us and found a few on our own. Such a spirit.


This woman earns her keep by posing for us tourists.

The best band we heard. It must be how the Buena Vista Social club were found.

This couple entertained us at a neighborhood art center.


Night Club performers and a trumpeter who wouldn't stay still as he put his all into his music.

A fantastic group of Haitian/Cuban performers.


Flamenco dancers don't stay still either.

Luncheon serenaders.

A beautiful choral group.

Cars of Cuba

We are going from the fancy shiny cars in Havana down to the cars used for real transportation in other parts of the island.












I love the air conditioner and street lamp on this truck.

Cuba - Transportation

Not going too far


Lots of side cars.

The horses didn't look too well fed but they work hard.


Instant walls for the rain.

The horse's cart contents is being loaded onto a truck.

This fancy cart and fancy people are out celebrating May Day.


Mick getting into our taxi.




A motorcycle taxi, note the extra helmet.

Folks getting on a bus.
