Catching Up

I spent the better part of this afternoon reviewing the images from my camera in preparation for catching up on this blog on Cuba. Usually I organize my posts according to the itinerary we’re following, but this Cuba experience calls for something different, as my photos naturally group themselves more by subject.

But to finish out our excursion to Viñales, here are a few more images of the lovely town and farm.

And the private botanical garden with its gigantic staghorn ferns and Monstera.

Cigar rolling. We dipped the mouth end of the cigar in honey for a milder flavor.

Another three hours on the bone-jarring highway and we were back in Havana for a nice dinner at nearby Donde Lis, where I had the enormous Cuban version of fried rice and croquetas with blue cheese.
