Havana Cuba Day 1 (part 1)

As requested I'm going to post photos as I go because you guys can't wait So my wife decided to take her mom, and drag me alone, to Havana. Her mom left Havana 43 years ago and hasn't been back till now. We were a bit worried about how she would react with all of the changes that's happened in the past 43 years. To our surprised she was fine Just a few comments on how the buildings need to be the cleaned and needed a fresh coat of paint. She was taken back a bit on how there's no stores. All of the shops she used to go to are all gone. There were very few store. We don't know where people buy things I thought Havana would be in worse shape. Not as bad as I thought We all felt very safe. No one bothered us even with the DSLR and tripod Very few people asked for money. Usually after we ask for direction. 50's American cars everywhere! It's a classic car heaven even though most if not all only had there original bodies and everything else are from other cars We took a tour in a vintage car Was fun! We definitely want to go back! Lots more to photograph!
