We walked miles and limes all
over Havana, Cuba, especially through old
town Havana. We enjoyed very much walking
through the small side streets where only few
tourists go.There are so many small restaurants
and bars along these streets, more than one can
possibly eat or drink.
We often looked at the castle
across the river. Then we decided to go and took
a taxi to drive us through the tunnel under the
river to the castle. From there we had a great
view of old town Havana.
The castle, Fort of Carlos of
the Cabin, is quite nice. We enjoyed
walking around and exploring it.
It turned out that we were not
alone. There was a huge international book
fair in the fort, that we didn;t know
about. On the upside there were lots of vendors
and food stalls that normally are not there.
Even though it was quite
crowded, it was nice to see that the
locals are very interested in books. There also
were areas in the huge fort that were nearly
empty.
We took a pedestrian ferry
back to old town Havana, Cuba and looked at some
more murals that celebrate the revolution
and Che.
