Entrance to harbor, the lighthouse at del Morro

"Morro Castle (Spanish: Castillo de los Tres Reyes Magos del Morro), named after the three biblical Magi, is a fortress guarding the entrance to Havana bay in Havana, Cuba. The design was drawn up by the Italian engineer Battista Antonelli; originally under the control of Spain, the fortress was captured by the British in 1762, and was returned to the Spanish under treaty terms a year later."

A large statue overlooking the harbor. I can’t help wondering if it was one of the last things the victims of Che’s blood lust saw before he had them shot.

I was a little self conscious about taking this tour. Cuba is not what you would call rolling in pesos and I thought this was just emblematic of Yankee Imperialism but in the end I was convinced and glad I was talked into it.
