Varadero

Saturday, December 24, 2016

After the breakfast on our shaded terrace, it was time to explore the beach.  Varadero is a tourist town.  It has a 20km stretch of a beautiful beach with pink sand. This is one of the nicest beaches in the Caribbean and it truly is beautiful. In addition, Cuban coffee is amazing so this combination will guarantee a good vacation.  

Our B&B is a nice little boutique hotel with only several rooms. The small garden in the front and a terrace has a thick shade and is where we spend some down time. The house has many nice details and is only a few meters away from the beach. I love it.

By now we found out where to purchase needed supplies. The mini markets sell mostly imported items, lots of beer and rum, and not really anything to eat. 

On our evening walk, we also found a bakery and purchased some cakes.  There was a church nearby but we could not find it, or it was all dark, so I am guessing there was no Christmas mass was conducted.  But our neighbors celebrated the whole night.
