Another semi-ruinous
town, this time in the vaguely Spanish style, Trinidad was our next call. Staying at the small town of El Boca just out of town and by the beach in a very kitschy Casa, this would be the closest to a beach resort we'd be staying in Cuba. Actually the town is home to one of those wonderful trade union hotels that are popular in Vietnam, again crumbling
soviet blocks with murky looking swimming pools. In fact on our Cuban travels, we've come across quite a few of these monsters, and it's never clear if they are derelict, closed, or open for business, and if so, who on earth stays at these places?
So, a day exploring the cobbled streets of the town, a lovely day on the beach (with resplendent red shoulders and sleeping on my front for days after) and back to La Habana before onward to Peru!
And the pics are
here.
