Adrianna, our leader

Breakfast..conversation

818am

Jany comes by to collect Anne and Louise to take them to the Airport

She was our interpreter and all around historian
Any question we asked she knew the answer....brilliant

Jang-ho, this is one of your donated tennis bags.
She was so very thankful and loved the color

Of all the items donated, I only knew what Jany and Mandy got
So I am pleased to share

924 am

I have been yakking about visiting a local supermarket with the sounds of "why" coming back.
Today, I dragged 3 people with me
We walked there from home
And I found some good things on the way

That supermarket was ........ .....................no words yet

We were also close enough to the Elian Gonzales, 138 flag pole work of Art that the Cuban Govt put up to block out the American Embassy and American "propaganda"

Of course I had to get into the maze of it...Darcy and Eric followed, and soon the Police spotted us and shouted for us to leave...we did and I was a little nervous that maybe our phones would be confiscsted

Because I am always filming or shooting "something"

Back home around 1045am
More strategic packing as to not break any of those lovely bottles of rum and degistiv I purchased yesterday

1137 am
OMG
Eric and Darcy just said yes to following me on a letterboxing adventure
Ask me about it upon my return
The adventure begins at the Capitol

We took a taxi and found the first clue.

The prize was not there though
Denied!
Then walked about viewing the art and artists on the Prado

We as Americans are not allowed to stay at this hotel

1215pm
Lunch at The Hotel Inglaterra

The music is Gooood

Coffee strong

BIG sandwich filled with protein is delicious

My lunch mates, Darcy and Eric make hanging out FUN

138pm
We are back home at the Art Deco, a lovely, highly recommended home away from home and I am sad to do that one more "look" to make sure I am not leaving anything

What a great trip.
Soup to nuts.
Jam packed.
We did everything and saw everything
Experienced SO much

I am definitely doing it again.
Next time I am taking juniors to compete with and against our Cuban friends

2pm taxi to the Airport

530pm flight to Ft Lauderdale
We arrive home after midnight weather permitting

PS. I did not steal the Art deco dematasse cup and saucer

We were pulled out of one line and scurried to the "Diplomatic" line and in no uncertain terms, we were told to "Get out you are NOT a diplomat"....lol

333pm
Now we are in the parents with babies line
LOTS OF TIME TO WRITE

The butting in line here is comical.
No one says anything

We are finally through customs and I am craving popcorn.. .denied
I have wasabi almonds

Boarding
So long Cuba
I will return

630pm
Just landed in Ft Lauderdale
Missing the Cuban air and everyone I met over the last 4 days

Sigh!
