LOOK AT HAVANA

"These numbers engraved in bronze on the floor help you see beyond the bay," the girl said in an expert voice and pointed to the different buildings, while I looked at her out of the corner of my eye and smiled, but I was really just concentrating on this framing, which was made difficult because I didn't have the right lens.

There were many people around and I was bothered by their shadows. Now when I edit this photo, I would have liked to have some of them here.

There were so many numbers and I only photographed this one. Which one would you have looked at?

She preferred 14, but I am not authorized to show her feet.

The San Carlos de la Cabaña Fortress is an ideal place to enjoy panoramic views of the city, as well as of miss Wind, and not so much of the scorching sun.

In the picture, if you zoom in, you can see how the classic cars are lined up to entertain tourists, photographers and whoever decides to take a luxurious ride through the city. Most of them are convertibles. Look, we could see a cocotaxi in full swing, it's the little one next to the Lada 2107 😅... because how not to recognize our own relics?

We don't need to have eagle 😂 eyesight to discover certain things, besides the canyons.

And, well, where I put the eye, I put the bullet... is not too far off the mark. What was the conspiracy there?

These silent places inspire me. When I saw it, I remembered an image that I was delighted to discover one day during my forays to Havana's rooftops.

Hoy es mi día de suerte, encuentro maravillas! - Today is my lucky day, I find wonders! (This is an emblematic phrase from the movie Fresa y Chocolate, how I love this scene! I'll do a review of this film one of these days.)

But you see, I'm getting off topic... Havana.

Thinking about it, though, it is related.

The girl and I wanted to have ice cream at the Book Fair, that's why we were there in La Cabaña; however, it was not possible. Standing in line for ice cream would have taken hours and I wanted to take a few pictures.

This is my entry in the #Monomad Challenge. Life got a little twisted. Last night some verses came to me and I thought by now they would be published. But Havana is enchanting and maybe the verses need a little more time, something that this city has in abundance.
