Plaza de la Revolution

Revolution Square. Osmin is telling us about the revolution and FIdel Castro. Revolution Square is used for large gatherings. It's where Castro would speak, When the Pope came to Cuba, this is where he held Mass. It's also where Obama came when he visited Cuba.

Paint

Osmin told us Cuba doesn't get a lot of paint imported. There was a lot of peeling paint but it just gave everything character.

Fieles a nuestra historia

True to our history. Instead of a lot of product advertisements there are billboards and signs with revolutionary propaganda. With the bus driving I tried to take pictures when I saw it but I missed some.

Cool

Even if they were for tourists, we still took a ton of pictures of the cars. Some were restored pretty nicely, some looked good from afar but if you got close you could see it was kinda duck taped together and had all kinds of parts that porbably shouldn't be in a car.

Classic Taxi

Our tour guide told us that the classic cars were for the tourists only. Not a lot of people owned classic cars, they own Russian and Japanese cars. The classic cars had been rusting in most people's yards until they figured out the tourists liked them. Interesting.
