Havana'ing a rest (Tuesday 3rd February)

Today walked around a bit and went to the train station to see if we can get tickets to go to places for a day trip. Gave up after a while as it was all too complicated. The queues were huge and there was very little information and assistance. At the bus station there were about 60 people seated ahead of us and we were informed that there would be a five hour wait. Decided to have a rest day where we tried to get s cup of coffee at one of the swank hotels. We were given a menu that ran for four pages and when we asked for a banana split and a coffee each were informed that the only items available was the Classic Sundae and Espresso Coffee. Nothing else on the menu was able to be purchased. We walked for ages and ended up at a place near where we were staying and got a bite to eat. We were extremely weary and returned home at about three in the afternoon only to fall asleep straight away
