The opportunity to visit Cuba was one I could not miss. I went as part of an academic group with emphasis on medical, environmental and horticultural subjects. We started in Habana, went on to Bay of Pigs, then Cienfuego and Trinidad before returning to Habana. We saw much of the countryside as we traveled by bus. SCROLL DOWN to see photos on this page. |
