Tuesday in Cuba

Tuesday was our busiest day.  After finally getting some money, we walked back through the Market or "El Pueblo".  It was probably built at the same time as the resorts, but was made to look much older and quite traditional.  There were large one or two story buildings that held such things as the bank, a gym, a spa and many restaurants.

I mentioned that it was a good two blocks long and those blocks were almost at right angles to each other.  In the center, between the two blocks, was a reproduction of a traditional town square.  there were low walls and a few benches around the outside edge, and in the center was a bandstand.  We sat on one of the low walls and took these pictures.

The first is a view of the street vendors, across the square.

The next is of the central bandstand, and a larger area of benches.  On the other side of the bandstand you can just make out a yellow building, which is in a mall area of about 6 businesses, including the bank

This is the same area but from a different viewpoint

Finally, when we had had enough walking we sat down for a drink in an ice cream bar. One can of cola was 2 pesos--about $2.50.  You can sort of see the new straw hat I bought.

And that was about all we did on Tuesday
