Cuba has amazing diverse architecture styles that make an incredible backdrop to it’s rich street life. While the Castro government did set out to restore many of the old buildings that were abandoned long before the Revolution, as people moved out to the newer parts of town, a lot of Cuban buildings are various states of disrepair. The contrast between those that are in great shape and those that aren’t is a feast for the eyes. Street scenes are rich and colorful and I wandered for hours looking for clues to figure out just what the state of Cuba was these days. FB limits how many pictures I can post but here’s a batch that begins to show the variety of styles and sites.
“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” - Mark Twain
