Cuba Day 4, January 13, 2024

What you have to protect yourself from is sand fleas. Despite our efforts to protect ourselves, we each have several bites. Their bites are itchy but you should not scratch. I hate being bitten which might explain us making haste through the sand to the beach for a walk and a long swim then hustling back to the pool area where the rum runs free and the water is refreshing, not like some warm pools we’ve been in. 

Today was Canada Day at the pavilion by the beach. A guitarist played along with backing tracks of rock songs while Turkey was being served for lunch. Sadly there was no tourtiere. Back to the beach for a swim and walk.

Dinner was in the Italian restaurant. Jill had spaghetti bolognese and I had pizza. Jill loved the spaghetti however my pizza was just ok. We finished our evening at the awesome lobby bar with an espresso and brandy. It was excellent. We left when the piano player hooked up with an annoying loud female singer. Yikes!
