and across the way, the city wakes up

Here’s another image from our early-morning photo expedition to the Malecon – this view is looking west across the bay to downtown Havana.

a hint of a rainbow

Early morning in Havana, with a tiny sliver of a rainbow. Those clouds were moving toward us and shortly we had to make a dash to shelter when the rain came.

the pensive man

You may remember an earlier photograph of a street-side mechanic? This is the man whose hands you saw in that other image. In case you wondered.

We were in his vicinity for several hours and that motorcycle never seemed to become operational while we were there; his face tells the same story.

creeping damp

It was a gray and dreary day, which made this non-gray and non-dreary find all the more exciting.

that was not a new leak

Based on the amount of slick green moss and rotting leaves in the large puddle next to the leaky fire hydrant, I am going to make a wild guess that maybe the leak’s not something that just started earlier that same morning.

A Report from the Research Department*: Google street view from December of 2021 does not show a leak.
