It was by no means a vacation.
It was an important life learning experience.
That would make a great vanity thread!
I admit for reasons I can’t explain, I was a tad callus to a lot of things I saw...apartment building falling apart in front of my eyeballs. I felt I could do nothing about it…Negligible lights over Havana at night as I looked out my wonderful “for foreigners only” first class hotel window.
It wasn’t until we were driving back to the airport, we skirted some areas outside of Havana that looked like those photos after WWII of Germany and elsewhere…. I have never, ever, seen such destruction that I saw in these decaying buildings.
I would love to go back calmly and discreetly photograph what I witnessed.
