I know I said "is finished I will not be happy" and not quite lying, but you do not travels to Cuba every day, and to whom is going to tell her story if not friends?.
could write it in an e-mail group, but it sure left some out, so I thought: what is the easiest way to read it all?. The blog, of course. I will be telling
per chapter per day (or I will hate) details trip. Videito I put at the end of this post (takes about 7 minutes, I see it flower completito cost me work to do, thanks for the patience Oz) includes the 8 days we were, so things will advance the story. Can look at it several times if they want ....
Now: here begins the story
CUBA - MARCH 2009
Storm of the Century (believe it or burst)
E l Tuesday, March 3 all TV channels announced alert Weather for the night. Interrupted until the transmission of "Pelit" by Back to ask the locals not to leave their homes, as it had been what they called "the storm of the century." Exactly at the same time that we had to board a plane bound for Panama.
At 10 pm I phoned all the numbers in the directory scheduled to ask their owners to open scissors, make crosses of salt, pray to the saints known, etc. so we could:
a) Arrive at Ezeiza (Buenos Aires if it floods, the only means of transport is by boat)
b) suspend the flight
c) Saliera on time (we had 1 hour to blend with the next to the Habana).
Both asked that the storm of the century was only a light rain.
Panama, Ruben Blades and where are the smiles?
H ay Copa advertising (which would use us) with Ruben Blades, saying: "Come to Panama, here the smiles are free." That must be why (they are free) that so stingy. Tocumen Airport is a place of transit flights arriving lots of combinations to all destinations worldwide, and also is a free port, free shop is a giant electronics market. Despite the antipathy of the Panamanians, the 10 minutes of arrival he had spent half the money he had for the entire trip in a professional Lumix digital camera. My husband still is insulting me, but my machine is fabulous ...
Luckily I had no time to keep looking ....
Cuba, the most beautiful
A one in the afternoon, when Cuba, had arrived at Jose Marti Airport in Havana where we expected an ultramodern combi to take us to Varadero. Along the way, the guide (a Polish who do not understand a knob), we were telling the story of all the places we passed. Circles the city of Havana surrounding the sea and to my surprise, with wonderful beaches buildings were crumbling, like the tenements we have here. I kept thinking about the anger that would give Macri unable to expropriate to build a new Puerto Madero ... We
the Havana Club rum factory, the plant that provides electricity throughout the province of Havana, built by the Russians with obsolete equipment, and still works, we crossed a bridge 300 meters above a valley of palms and made amazing a stop at a little bar in the middle of nowhere where they say, make the best pina colada in the country. I have no idea if it's true, but I took very happy ... We drove a bit
Matanzas, capital of the province where Varadero, and 10 minutes after we entered the peninsula. Varadero is located on a peninsula angostita (300 m) and long (24 km) where all the luxury hotels of the country. The Cubans say that Varadero is Cuba, and they are right.
we were leaving one after the other passengers to get to our destination: the Hotel Melia Las Antillas, and that yes, I fell on my ass sovereign.
If there is paradise, please be as Varadero
T uve opportunity in my life to be in beautiful hotels, but something like this, I think ever. Gigante, comfortable, 360 suites, an artificial lake, a giant swimming pool, 5 restaurants, 4 bars, jacuzzi, sauna, nightly entertainment, disco, entertainment, sailing boats, kayak, beach services and everything, everything, everything you want to eat and drink when you can think of. By 7 days, except for breakfast, nothing took less than 20% alcohol. At this point in my blood there is more alcohol than red blood cells. And by the way, remember suit over 4 kilos ...
Alfonsina y el mar
P or course, finished registering, throw the bag (almost pay overweight Ezeiza) and went running to the sea. The hotel is on the beach, and to get it passed by a few bridges wood ending in a bar in the middle of the arena.
the Caribbean was there, waiting. I walked slowly with his eyes closed to get me slowly in water and then if I had the absolute conviction that he was at sea from Alaska!
