Sending Up A Signal Flare

 

The farms in Viñales, Cuba

Hello, again, Blogonauts!

My apologies to you all! The time gap between my last post and this one was longer than I had planned.

Once we were on the road, however, the internet proved to be almost as much of a foreigner in Cuba as I am.

Not only is internet access rare, but electrical power also comes and goes, often lasting only a few hours each day. And with no electricity, there are no lights, no air conditioning, and of course, no Wi-Fi.

But today, at least for now, Trinidad's electricity is still sparking, and I am speedily typing in hopes of  posting this entry before we are once again powerless.

Photos, you will understand, are necessarily sparse for this Jaunticles entry. Let's just note that our tour is both fun and interesting. We're learning a lot about modern Cuba. And all of us in the group regale one another with travel tails from our treks across the planet.

On Sunday, I'll return to the US, and my plan is to issue 4 or 5 Jaunticles entries, just to give you a taste of what it has been like, carousing gleefully around Cuba with about 16 other travel nuts.

So, just in case you were wondering, we're all safe, healthy, well-fed, and our ears filled with the echoes of the Cold War.

But more on that later. Keep your eye out for a better description, once I'm back where the infrastructure isn't so inferior.

And if you leave a comment here, please leave me a hint about who you are.

Blog to you later!
