Hey, thought I’d add the final article containing pictures from my second camera. Ya, I did take hordes of images with both my cameras. Hope you guys and gals took the time to check out the two previous articles containing the main trip summary and the Figma photo shoot attempts. Enjoy, and thanks for lurking ^^. I also added two special images at the bottom of the article, hope you like.

Any girls here? I know you gals like chasing these cats and petting them. Can you please wash your hands after petting them while you eat? Silly Canadian girls.

Some Cuban food for you to check out during Lunch time.

And hordes of Salamanders. These things were literally everywhere and on top of every swiss-cheesed style rocks. Also heard a random female tourist tried catching one only to end up being laughed at. Tourists……..

Maid towel creation – my hat to spice up the creation.

A stuck Sparrow. There was a large opening just less then half a meter to its bottom right.

A fishing boat out on the horizon. It took full zoom to even get this image. Oh hey, there is even a boat behind the boat.

A black bird literally 5 seconds before shitting in between two French girls. It flew to the other column to the right and let out a big white blob that plopped in between the two gals in the group of 5.

I got up and told the group that the bird shat near them since they didn’t know. I mean, just look at the bird’s expression, it was up to no good. It even tried harassing me and my friend over a hot dog and burger by jumping on seats at another time.

Eating Hot Dogs and burgers in Cuba? They’re snacks and tourists keep complaining about Cuban food so I had no choice but to eat that. There was also a story about some silly Toronto tourist complaining about the taste of the burgers as it wasn’t the same as the one back in Toronto, stupid. They should just expose themselves to other cultures or just stay locked up in their room if they’re not going to change.
And to add to this, the same black bird tried tried to steal my Hot Dog and burgers by jumping closer on metal chairs near the pool side snack bar. As nice as it was for the camera, it got annoying fast when trying to eat.

Cloudy, and late for a sunset. 8:20 pm-ish. Best time is in between 7:30-8:00 pm

Stray dog. Again, the girls went after these.

Dive bombing Sparrows. These aren’t your ordinary Sparrows, these are your dive bombing and fly-by Sparrows that the tourists brought up by feeding them fries and such. These Sparrows will literally fly an inch away from your head and even come in groups to steal your food. These and those black birds, worst combination. Its like a secret Air Force branch of the Cuban army….I’m not kidding, I swear.

I kind of felt right at home with all the Canadian praising, the great food, and the +30 to 40*C weather. I can’t explain it with pictures or words but Cuba is a great place. You just have to go there, if you’re allowed to. The only down side of the trip was the case of the craps, the rude tourists and the first room I got placed in. The rest, felt like being in paradise.

Stitched images:
I did try to get two stitches together as my camera couldn’t handle the two landscapes. A single image was just too much for my Lumix GF1 as the camera is slightly zoomed into objects. It probably might be the way the lens connects into the camera. Anyways,…..We have a view from:

Thanks for viewing the three part Cuba articles. The blog will be silent till around July 1st. There might be a few possible Figma photo shoots in between “now” and July 1st which should give lurkers enough time to catch up on my blog to find content that might or might not be interesting to them. Thanks for viewing and hope to see you soon in the near future.
