some visual stimulation for you!

Here are some of my favorite photos that I've taken thus far...click on them to make them bigger!


this is part of a mural that was painted at Casa.


The Ceiba tree located at El Templete, where the city was founded in 1519. It is tradition to wish at this ceiba tree.


Gerardo riding Miles' skateboard during our tour of La Habana Vieja. This was in Plaza Vieja.


The Crew!!


The master, Reynaldo, rollin' up a legit Cuban cigar, the legit way.


This one's for you Papi!! Reynaldo and I!


The very first Cuban flag...made in the U.S. Ironic.


Bullet holes from the shots that were shot at young college revolutionaries when they stormed the President's Palace to assassinate Batista.


Part of a mural at the Museo de la Revolución depicting Fidel's march into Havana in 1959.


That iconic picture of El Ché by Korda that everyone recognizes and has seen was taken on this day.


Caricature of Batista that is El Rincon de los Cretinos at the Museo de la Revolución. Along with him are George Bush senior and Ronald Reagan.

That's all for now folks...this internet is so slow and posting these just took FOREVER!!! More to come!!!!!
