The Caribbean and its Neighbours

Seven mile Beach, just north of George Town

Seen on Grand Cayman Island, high in a tree at the tiny tourist spot of 'Hell' :)

The Prehistoric Mural in Cuba's western province of Pinar del Rio is situated on a rock amidst the World Heritage Site of "The Viñales Valley". It was painted in 1959 as one of the largest 120m al fresco paintings.

Seen in the town of Pinar del Rio, far on the west of the Island

The old city of Havana in Cuba has much to offer the tourist. Here is the splendid Opera House: 'Gran Teatro de La Habana'. It was constructed to serve as a social center for Galician immigrants to Havana. The theatre has been home to the Cuban National Ballet and plays home to the International Ballet Festival of Havana. For me, if its dance and music is as good inside as the physical beauty of outside then it's a place indeed. Notice the typical 1950's auto-mobiles still in general use here.

Havana is a city of music, as is the whole of Cuba I think. Here the sounds of the Rhumba rings true and clear and nothing puts such musicians off, even the passing of an interesting figure perhaps!

People who know me, also know I'm a bit of a techie. I have seen a few of these drones around and often thought that I would perhaps like to own one in order to take photos from a high vantage point, which also ties in with another of my hobbies 'Flight Simulation'. Never got round to buying one though as I thought its use my be misconstrued. I've never seen one in a city centre hovering next to their greatest and most important building before and therefore wonder what or who is it filming? Ah well, such is the modern world! ps the building is the National Capitol Building of Havana, Cuba.

The start of another Havana Grand Prix, maybe not but a glimpse of the traffic situation here in Havana old town Cuba it is. Lots of these vintage sedate cars around here. Quite refreshing to see.

Its hot out here in Aruba! Time for a little cool refreshment. Good job Mr Shaved Ice is here, not withstanding that noise racket caused by the bolt-on generator. Enjoy
