Cuban modes of transport

Have you ever seen a pig in mud? That’s what I’ve been travelling with for a few days now. Now that we’re more familiar with Havana and can track down the cheap eats, things are going smoothly. Hopefully this continues in Viñales, out in the countryside, where the bus we are on is taking us.

In the meantime, here’s a series of vehicles visible out the bus window and on the street. These are in addition to the coco-cab, the tuk-tuk, and other vehicles common in Havana.
