Cuba 2016   The first adjective to describe Cuba is "complicated." Cubans aren't allowed to open their own businesses, but they can run the equivalent -- be it a room for rent, a restaurant or a hair salon -- out of their homes. We stayed in a casa particular -- a Cuban B&B -- in the tall building in this photo, in Havana's Vedado neighborhood. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58b1c780e4fcb5221579346c/1488389064338-FNFTGSCGLIBVBTRFT2O7/30690270444_5ea597d493_o.jpg The Latest - Cuba 2016   The light in the Caribbean makes even a journeyman photographer look good. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58b1c780e4fcb5221579346c/1488389115197-M9DYZ9YEAF2FWLO15SDA/31415676501_098892f4bf_o.jpg The Latest - Cuba 2016   A panorama of Havana as seen from the balcony of our room in Vedado. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58b1c780e4fcb5221579346c/1488389117279-Z4OPOCPXACQ9WEESIR6N/30690278384_38eaa33d17_o.jpg The Latest - Cuba 2016 Our delightful hosts, Armando and Betty Gutiérrez. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58b1c780e4fcb5221579346c/1488389121447-313JDMIUZF42B78T6E6O/31159942710_b1fc3ab165_o.jpg The Latest - Cuba 2016   A notice posted outside our building re: the week's events memorializing Fidel Castro. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58b1c780e4fcb5221579346c/1488389151990-XSRL5EX4MW4HAQMOOPQQ/31159946890_9aa43646f8_o.jpg The Latest - Cuba 2016   Havana, looking west from the FOCSA Building (named after its construction company).

The practical effect: There was no music -- even taxi drivers turned down their normally blaring radios -- and little alcohol -- only hotels were allowed to serve . . . legally. This was taken on the day after the mourning period ended, at the El Floridita, a bar in Habana Vieja frequented, at the time, by Ernest Hemingway (a statue of him is at back left), and the self-proclaimed cradle of the daiquiri. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58b1c780e4fcb5221579346c/1488389576879-WT06E9DT8TRW6C3B2ZW9/31159911890_966abac9e9_o.jpg The Latest - Cuba 2016   Carrie & Papa & me: Awkward selfie with a statue of Hemingway, perched at the end of the bar at El Floridita. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58b1c780e4fcb5221579346c/1488389610404-RQIVO7AH18T962BYTSNN/30722051863_c9b0b871ce_o.jpg The Latest - Cuba 2016   The interior of Finca Vigía, Hemingway's home outside Havana.
