With lots of travelling over the last few days, we decided to have a chilled day of just walking round the city and having the odd cocktail here or there (bit of a pattern here eh?).

Later that night we took a vintage car ride up to and visited the San Carlos de La Cabana Fortress. They hold a ceremony at 21:00 each night, that dates back to the 17th century to announce the opening and closing of Havana’s wall. A canon shot has been made here every night since it started with only the exception of between 1943-1945 (during WW2) to avoid Havana being detectable by German submarines.

We then ventured up to Cristo de La Habana, a huge statue of Jesus Christ made of marble blessed by Pope Pius XII and is situated above the village of Casa Blanca and overlooks Havana. We then got a vintage taxi back to Old Havana, which the taxi driver ended up taking his two mates along with him as well ha!
