This morning, despite my well known hate for waking up early, I went
for a walk through the city at 6:30 with my camera. Everyday morning when Kat
and I take the bus to work I see things out the window I want to photograph but
never have the time to. Today, since we didn't have to be in class until 10am,
I finally had the morning to walk down our regular bus route and get pictures
of the city in the morning light. (If I haven't mentioned it before, every Friday Kat and I sit down with some of our professors from the past semester and talk about our experiences on the organopónico). At 6:30 the majority of the city is still
sleeping and the streets are relatively quite, which is a little odd for Havana.
My walk ended up being two hours but was incredibly relaxing. I won't upload
all the photos I took since there are way too many, but here's a sample of what
Havana looks like early in the morning:
 |
| I've never seen calle Reina so quiet (Reina means queen) |
 |
| "FLY" |
 |
| I see these guys fishing everyday when Kat and I are on the bus. Finally got a photo. |
 |
| Something tells me the scaffolding has been there a while. |
 |
| I really love some of the street art here |
 |
| Calle Prado without any people |
 |
| "Fieles a nuestra Historia" or True to our History |
 |
| "Me Gusta Cuba" |
 |
| The Malecon in the morning light |
 |
| CDR's (Committees for the Defence of the Revolution) |
 |
| Finally back to our home street after 2 hours |
