Honeymoon, or rather three weeks spent on Cuba - the country of the hot sun, no less hot dancing and colorful nature. The choice of trinidad fell on Trinidad, and it is not by chance. For a long time, chose among many proposals. And they were not disappointed later with the choice.
In advance through the Internet, we agreed about Casa. Her owner, by the way, came to meet us right at the airport and helped with a luggage. Upon arrival, it turned out that Casa was a decent size of a colonial style house. There was a large terrace and patio. Although cooking food and was on the owners of Kasa, we often looked into the neighboring cafe - the prices are very and very democratic, so do not worry, (if anyone is going to rest there) - the hungry will not be right away!
The first truck was an excursion to a locomotive in the valley, she was advised by the owner of the house. Tickets We took in Havaantand and gave a couple of dozen cookies for them. Waiting for the locomotive itself on the platform was delayed before indecent. This is later we have already gradually got used to the usual, purely Cuban delay in almost everything. There is a non-historicalness and nonpuncture norm, and no one is offended. So our excursion was delayed for almost an hour. But the widow was noticeable. Even in the cabin cabin, but there for a fee. The first stop was a tiny village with a planter house and a high tower. In the house found an ancient apressing for reed juice, (we were trying to sell it on the platform, but, according to the reviews of tricks - the nastyness is rare, and we began to take it). They cooked on the tower, the view is excellent. So it was not in vain gave 1.5 Cook for the entrance. And the most important stop was on the ranch. There was a dinner, playing live music, plus a ranch tour, it is valid. From the whole trip on the locomotive Most of all views from the window liked. So if anyone gathered in such a trip, sleep or hide your nose in the book is not recommended. It is better to be put in the window - there will really be something to admire!
Another memorable event was a visit to the waterfall of El Nicho. That's where you can spend all day, and not notice! The entrance is true, paid. But they give out the wetsuit, who did not capture their bathing. The waterfall turned out to be real, with a decent root and a wide linen of the decline of water. And it was on the waterfalls of the North Caucasus. Some of them by name are only such. And how to come to them - a stream of a stream with a vertical cliff plump runs - that's all. But El-Nicho is quite another thing! Thirty meters high!
From the souvenirs home brought a couple of bags and hats from the real straw, handmade. In general, as we understood the experience, memorable things are better to buy in state stores. Let it be more expensive, but at least more or less qualitatively. And if the minor traders have taken from the hands, it is for a long time to bargain, and the goods are Nevaznetsky.
Of course, in obligatory ride on the sea. It is far away, however, but managed to negotiate with the local owner of the taxi (again, the owner of our Casa helped). He regularly drove us to the beach. The Caribbean Sea in advertising does not need, the water is warm, the waves are excellent. There are many people on the beaches, but, mostly, youth, so fun and just for us.
Describing our wonderful holiday in Cuba, I can not tell me about the dance in the open sky. Live music and wonderful mojito, bright costumes and incendiary movements. I think even citizens in retirement age will not be gaining in place. This colorful act began about 9 or 10 pm every day. Fans of Salsa, Rumba, Cha Cha-Cha Cha Cha Chas and other hot species were gathered and began to fade. On many there were special outfits, everything went pretty alive and noisy, with a light. Soon and we mastered a couple of simple steps of Salsa and having fun, as they could. Cubans, by the way, the people are friendly. We even didn't even use English that the local kindly demonstrate a couple of PA and taught the dance to uncomplicated movements.
The most beloved of our bar in Trinidad - La Kanchancha. He takes great popularity (and not in vain!). So if you think to visit him, then keep in mind that in the evening there is full of people, and the tables are often occupied. Oh, what extraordinary cocktail we tried there. He was collected from Roma, honey, lime, cooled by pieces of ice - after the daily heat the most.
A note on future travelers will say that it is reasonable to negotiate the price for the passage on the velaiksche in advance, otherwise the price of three road will be sprig. Such here are the cracks. And if you get to the hotel, it is better to call something located nearby, then the price does not take off to heaven.
We really liked everything, I was satisfied with the holidays. Now we plan to visit Cuba again, only closer to the sea.
