We flew in and out of Camaguey, the third largest city (pop 280,000) after a 3 hr 40 minute flight from Toronto. ... (UNESCO has declared the old inner city areas of Cuba's 3 largest cities - Havana, Santiago and Camaguey, world heritage sites. ... ) The people are a mixture of Spanish stock, Creoles, North African slave descendents and this leads to interesting mixtures of skin colour and some incredibly attractive women (yes Ian wrote this bit!).It is apparent here in Canada that despite clear blue skies and a blazing sun, that the temperature of minus 27 has a lot to do with what Canadians (and us as closet Canucks) think of the winter.

Vamos a Cuba!

Nov 6, 2005 - Camaguey - good times and bad times
