Vinales

A 6 hour drive to get here from Trinidad.  It didn’t seem worth it for one night, despite the odd diversion on the journey such as the young guys racing their pony and traps 3 abreast on the highway, and various people selling all sorts from mangoes to a dead turkey.  Then we arrived and were greeted by this view.


The photos doesn’t do it justice – just stunning.  The hotel was basic.  Someone clearly decorated just before the revolution and forgot to come back, but it didn’t matter.  

We hung out by the pool for a bit then had dinner nearby watching the sun set over the mountains.  Then when it got dark watched the stars ping one by one amongst the bats and fireflies.   Magical.

  1. I can tell from all pics you are having the experience that you hoped for…..scenery, salsa, your paths crossing with random strangers with their cigars!!…. so interesting and so different. Keep the blog going
    as I can then feel a tiny part of what you’re experiencing.
    Nothing happening here!! xxxxx
