Trinidad (no Tobago)

Tuesday 15th April, we were picked up at the Saratoga Hotel for the five hour drive to Trinidad, just off of the south coast of the centre of the island. On the way we stopped off in Cienfuegos (according to Jane, pronounced 'Cinfoss'....a bit unnatural, until you think of Leicester...) for a quick look around the town square. On one side of the square was the Teatro Tomas Terry (Terry Thomas Theatre)....well, my first thought was that this was some tit-for-tat blow against the Peoples Republ...

Feliz in Cuba

Julie and I both celebrate birthdays while in Cuba. Mine is today, but "celebrate" is too strong a phrase for what I anticipate. Our three days so far in Trinidad have been pleasantly relaxed, with nothing more exciting on the schedule than occasional trips for ice cream or to a local sight. This will suffice for today as well, though I did mention the idea of me getting out tonight to hear some of the music that floats into our room at night and lasts until at least 2 a.m. We have a new neig...

Dancing in Trinidad

... all good sites, it spoke of the revolution and days before. It went right back to the slave trade days. As an added bonus, this place also had a tower so we took the views in again.

Once done, we wondered the streets some more, but as it's so hot here, we jumped in the car, whacked the air-con to full and hit the beach. It was nice to cool off before dinner.fter food, we went back to the Casa de la Musica, the music and the dancing were good, but realistically ...

Trinidad

... and explains the number of artist studios that are scattered amongst the cheap tourist shops. The artists are a special addition here inspired by everything that moves or not. The city is alive in spirit reflected by man's attempt to put his emotions on a canvas that will never die. A reflection of soul surrounded by the sounds of soul. I understand how Hemingway was inspired to create the masterpieces that only Cuba could hold within. Feb 19, You can visit Trinidad in a ...

Playa La Boca

... as the valley opened up in front of us from Trinidad and we made our way towards the park through farmland then up very steep grades for which we were often in 1st gear. I cannot compare with Spain but impressive nonetheless. We paid our 6 CUC entrance into the park and started off on our hike to see the falls. The sign said 45 minutes but it took us longer than that. After about a half hour into the hike we both looked at each other and wondered the same thing. Does this ...

... d learnt and made him know in English, in no uncertain terms what I thought of him. All we watned to do was have our drinks and food in peace in the shade where the barman said we could. No ways we'd be going back there!! A bit further on we saw a crab and stopped to take some pics. ANOTHER security guy came sauntering over. Nix immediately asked whether there was problem. No problem he says. A few seconds later he asks "Where you from? English? Spanish? You two so ...

From Havana via Guanabo and Vinales to Trinidad

... been to one before I'm not really sure what I'm looking for and wonder if I'm supposed to just knock on the front door of the given address. I decide against it and wander the main road, stumbling across a 'bar' that does a couple of 'snacks'. I sit and eat cheese omlette, while being hassled continuously by people from the street wanting to sell me papers, sex or requesting me to give them my baseball cap. Not knowing what to do with myself I keep sitting and reading until an ...

... not least because of the vibrant Casa de la Musica at the top of those steps with a real night club behind. I say a real night club because it was only when the power failed that we realised there was no roof and we could see the stars - thank goodness because there is no such thing as a back up generator. Each town has a CdlM and a Casa de la Trova - I am not sure what the difference is meant to be - but we spent some good times in bo

Trinidad - two nights should be enough...

Trinidad This is the UNESCO World Heritage town in south of Cuba, it's about 500 years old. It's a very nice place to visit, the main attraction in the region. It wasn't very busy any time I was there. There's a market open in the middle of town selling crafts and odd souvenirs during the day and a slight trickle ...
