We did it our way! When we finally returned to Havana we were relocated to yet another hotel, the famous Ambos Mundo, which had been the home for several years of Ernest Hemingway. Imagine our surprise when we realized that we were on the same floor as he had occupied!
It seemed fitting since we had visited Finca Vigia earlier.
I snuck in later that night when you were all asleep, to check out Ernie’s room –
We only had time to get settled in, grab a dinner on their rooftop terrace and then we were off to Hotel Nacional to see the renowned floor show at La Parisien. Another surprise was that we had rented classic cars to take the whole group to the theatre!! Sergio out did himself with this one…
Can we ride in this all the way back to Veradaro?
Sadly, the floor show was less than spectacular for many of us. We were crammed together in the theatre…perish the thought of a fire! The costumes were elaborate but somewhat tired. The music was repetitious except for the tango dancers.
It was an experience nevertheless. At the end of the evening we returned to our classic cars for the ride to the Hotel, along the Malecon. A short walk found us at Ambos Mundo again where most of us headed straight to bed.
The next afternoon, the Merida group were off to the airport to spend our last CUCs and board our plane…
From Larry, Sergio and I, a big THANK YOU for joining us on this journey. Who knows where we will be heading next winter?

Where did Sergio go after he left us at the airport?
