Heading to Cuba!!

We watched the beautiful sunrise from bed whilst enjoying a coffee. We had fruit and yoghurt for breakfast on the balcony while looking for dolphins in the ocean. We hailed a taxi out the front for the short trip to the port. We boarded the boat and the singer kept us entertained for the journey across to the mainland. At the port we did some successful haggling to get a cab to the airport. The costs started at US$50 and we ended paying only US$12.50. We checked in for our flights and Zoe had some trouble as her immigration form was missing so she had to buy a new form. We got our visas to Cuba in the line to check in for the plane, which was very easy and cost about $25 AUD. We flew to Cuba and arrived at Havana airport. We got some CUC money out from the ATM and converted some Mexican pesos into the Cuban Pesos. We caught a taxi to our AirBnB and met the family. After we walked around the town and had dinner at a restaurant in one of the squares. We walked around the old town and two Cuban guys introduced themselves and walked around explaining things as one of them was normally a tour guide. They said they weren’t allowed to be talking to us and could get in trouble from the police for being seen with us. After Zoe and I went to a rooftop bar called Roma which we’d been invited to by people on the street with business cards. There was nice views over the city and we had a bit of a dance with some Cuban people.Read more
