Simple travelogue at Trinidad, Cuba part 2

-Been to Vinales for 4 days, the mountain looks like Gwai Lin in China, just without water.

-Having my first horse riding experience over there for 4 hours, which is quite long. Learn more about control the horse, it´s easy for turning direction and stop, but difficult for asking acceleration. Will do another horse riding tomorrow in Trinidad.

-There is some hut over the rural area to selling drinks. When we stop, there is a horse running very fast and stop in front of the hut. The guy with cowboy hat (Mexico style) pay money and quickly drink up and ride the horse quickly away!! Wow!! Just like the cowboy movie!!!

-Finally get some good music in the town´s only club. Drink with the Italian-Spanish couple and they talk each other with both languages, so weird. And the guy Mitteo is a bit nationalist, he hates England by bits!!

-Don´t fool by Lonely Planet or any Englishmen about Cuba food is crap. They are good! Except they always overcook lobster for some reason! But at least they know use the paste from lobster head to make the sauce for lobster, and they use chicken oil to cook the rice!Grill fish is extremely well, it´s no skill just the fish is good, and cheap!

-The only thing not sure is the cleanless of water and food, I´ve been stomache for couple of days and getting better now. I think I will stop the moijto(which I drink countless of them since I´ve coming) and only rely on canned drinks.

-There is only two beers sold in Cuba, Crystal and Bocanergo, Crystal is mild and the other is stronger. After days you find its lack of choice and feel bored.

-Taken 9.5 hours bus from Vinales to Trinidad, half'life left. Stay here for 6days just becos the bus schedule to Santa Clara is not suitable for the journey and I think I will miss it. That means I couldnt go to Che Guvera´s museum. Well, I´m not long hair.

-But 5 nights in here is a bit crazy, I try to go somewhere different every day. Today I go to take the steam train to meyer and back. It´s slow, and......smoky law......

-Yesterday is better, go to Tope d Something(forgot the full name) with the tour, go to waterfall and so. Quite beautiful, and the people in the tour are very nice!!half of them are Italians another are German, just me in th middle but they are very talkative.

-And most of them are school teachers,it just a nice job, eh

-BTW, the Italian nationalist in Vinales is a professor in Milan University, teaching Stat, Probability, and Quantitive methodology. So when I talk about gambling, he said ´You can´t win in casino, otherwise how can they make loads of money.´ with confidence.

Wow!What a great discovery!I think I can apply for the job, if I learn Italian......

-Sorry it´s kind of boring becos I´m kind of boring today for some reason. Just feel empty and lack of energy. Just watched ´Push Hand´ this afternoon and maybe watch ´Munich´ tonight.

Ciao!
