I really didn't think we would have AC anywhere in Cuba. Much to my surprise there was a window unit in my bedroom at the house. What a gift! (Until I figured out it didn't work and actually made the room more humid and uncomfortable!)
And you know what? It's cool. Well, in the figurative sense it's cool. It kind of takes me back to my expectations thing. I didn't expect it, and therefore I'm not really disappointed. Would it be nice to not wake up in the middle of the nigh multiple times sweaty? Sure. But honesty I don't care. I'm extremely, extraordinarily thankful to be in Cuba. Like seriously. With the news yesterday, that Chap had to translate for me, I may be one of the last people from the US to be here for quite a while under the current travel regulations. Even if that wasn't the case, I'm in freaking Cuba. I'm so thankful to Mary and John for thinking of me when they were making their plans to take a trip. Honestly, I would never have thought to come here.
I'm glad I did! It's way different from the US norm and that's cool to me. A ton of the culture is lost on me and that stinks a little bit I've learned a ton about it since being here.
There are some really warm and jovial people, some people that are only interested in money and people in between. Sounds like life to me!
