Digging through archives of old photos, I came across some of my favorites from Cuba. Some of these need some touch up, but I mostly like them!
I loved, LOVED all of the old cars in the country and all other modes of transportation for that matter. Some day I hope to make my way back there.
Hope these images bring you back to a memorable trip or provide you with an insight into the country of Cuba!
Cheers! Pam

I was sure I took photos of the exact same cars and men, but of course I really didn’t (I looked – haha). Did you actually take a ride in one? We called a random cab (versus the ones lined up for tourists) a few times, and we thought that the cars would break down at any moment. They know their cars, though – very impressive that they are still making these babies go!

We did! On the last night in Havana we all got to ride in convertibles through the city. It was so much fun! I’ll have to see if I can dig up a photo and add it to the gallery! I can bet your photos are way better then mine!

Cuba is yet another one of the many, many places on my wish list but it is the age old problem of so many places and so little time.
I love this post, especially the old cars. I am not particularly a petrolhead (I do not even drive) but these are beautiful.

I completely agree….so many places to see. I rarely go back to the same place because of that. Though we are headed to revisit London soon. Sometimes a good old fashioned European trip is fun 😊Thanks for taking the time to read through a few posts! I appreciate you!!
