Entrance to the beach at Ancon just 9 km from Trinidad. The beaches were surprisingly pretty good.

Another picture from the Malecon facing the fort/castle structure. We never made it over there to see how it was from there. It looked cool.

The sidewalk along side the Malecon. Many girls and tourists walk on the Malecon. It's a long stretch that has a sidewalk all the way up to Miramar.

Views from Bahia Honda to La Palma. Again, the photos don't do it justice. Mountains mixed with palm trees with some sugar cane that can't be seen from this photo.

Palm trees outside of La Palma. Very beautiful. Something about seeing palm trees that is the international symbol of rest and relaxation.

View of the Bay at Bahia Honda. That white plant you see is I believe unharvested sugar cane.

Typical small school outside of a small town. We stopped to take a photo and the teacher came out. We could hear her giving lectures to the class. She said we could take pictures from afar. Seaman gave the two kids on the porch some gum.

On the way outside of Pinar del Rio. Notice those boxes at the bottom of the photo. We stopped to take a bathroom break and snap some photos. Little did we know there were honey bees there. Seaman got stung by a bea. Oops.

This is probably my favorite picture of the trip because it was so unexpected. We were taking a picture across the road when I heard 2 little girls yelling for Seaman and I to take their picture. There was an old house frame that you can see that no one lived in and the girls were dying for us to take their picture. We ended up giving them some candy.

A pretty typical sidestreet in Havana Viejo.
Saint:
Thanks for the non-chica pictures. For those who have never gone to Cuba, they certainly showed how life is for the people there. They certainly show how the embargo has affected the economic life of the people there, especially after the break up of the Soviet Union.
I can't imagine how it was like riding in one of those 1950s cars. Now I know where Francis Ford Coppola filmed Godfather II, in old Havana itself. Just kidding, but it sure looks that way.
Saint,
Its true, I for one look forward to seeing pictures of chicas conquered by fellow mongers, but the picture of the Havana side street is great. There is something erotic and romantic, yet depressing about those dilapidated buildings. So, in my opinion, the photos are a good visual diversion and gives one a sense of the monger "playing-field".
Thanks
Often wonder about the value of those vintage cars and whether they could be exported, but lets not digress!
Saint thanks, gives me a real feel for the place. Helpful to see before my trip next week.

Here is a photo of La Chorrera where we picked up several girls. There is a $5 entrance fee to get in. There are several girls in the parking lot too. It's kind of surreal because there are many guys and families that hang out in the area for some reason. We saw a few todlers a few night and thought it was strange they would hang out in this area. It's located at the end of the Malecon near Miramar.
