Santiago de Cuba







Christmas came and went without our noticing...we had planned for a hungry day as we were cycling along a road without big towns but we foudn plenty of street food, pizza, pork sandwiches and sugar cane juice. On Christmas eve we were invited in the home of Roberto and Yanelis, who had her birthday, so on top of the usual delicious meal cooked at casas, roast pork, rice and salad we were given a ¨birthday soup¨ and plenty of rum as well as being taught salsa!
Now back in Santiago for a couple of days, looking at historic houses, listening to wonderful street music, soaking up the atmosphere and filling up with food before our next leg of the journey on the east coast road. John is still delighted over having seen the tiniest humming bird in the world. Even managed to photograph it!
