Pedro reflecting on…

If these guys really have the capacity to learn guaganco/rumba? Pedro is a well known Cuban rumba dancer and that particular day he had been hired for a private lesson in Vedado/Havana.

What´s for dinner today?

 This was a peculiar dog that absolutely refused to enter the kitchen in this farmhouse in Viñales/Cuba.  The other dog of the house was on the other hand constantly running in and out of the same room.

So he had his window where he looked in every now and then with that kind of hungry look on his face!  In the background you see tobacco plants, very common in this region of Cuba.
