Cuba photography

Headed out to Cuba last Monday, got back on pretty much a red eye flight Tuesday morning at 4 am. Was a pretty long flight back, being tucked in a little space. I believe the flight was a solid 6 hours, going there was about 5 hours 40 minutes.

Spent 7 days at a 5 star resort which would normally be about a 4 in Mexico, I think mostly because the US doesn’t have any influence on the country. Beaches are a lot better then Mexico with flatter, warmer and clearer water. You also don’t have Mexicans bugging ya every few minutes to buy shit.

We headed into the Capital of Cuba, Havana for a day trip. Saw how a lot of Cubans lived and what they lived in. Some very interesting structures as well as a lot of variety of vehicles. Many 50′s Americana cars, Chinese buses and Russian sports cars with very old Spanish architecture.

Didn’t do too much of the culture stuff since we stayed at an all inclusive but it was still quiet an eye opener see how these people lived.

Grabbing some of my favorite shots, I’ll add more probably to flickr later on.
