A NIGHT ENJOYING THE ARTS


Last night and tonight, I stay with Miguel and Danielas and their dog Chori (short for Chorizo – there are a lot of sausage dogs in Cuba). I think Danielas thinks my Spanish is better than it actually is, and hope that I am nodding and smiling at the appropriate times.

Tonight I am seeing a £3.50 show at Teatro Toma Terry in the main square in Cienfuegos. I will be smartly dressed in trousers, so Danielas can wash my only pair of shorts. Carrying four pairs of trousers and one pair of shorts in my rucksack is already starting to feel like a bad luggage decision.
