The road to Moa

Here is a pic of the road from Holguin to Moa.  The driver had stopped to go and get his fruit again so I took the chance to take a few pics.  This is the good section of the road.

Work Computers

Alright, most of us get a computer to use for work purposes.  We are meant to use it for work purposes and that's about it.  We aren't supposed to use it for personal purposes.  We all sign various agreements to that effect when we start our jobs. Now then, what are some of the things you shouldn't put on your work computer?  Well personal financial information would be one.  Perhaps correspondence and love letters to girlfriends.  Maybe pictures of said people.  How about pornography?  Today I had the distinct pleasure of reviewing the computer files from my predecessor.  I found all of the above and this was after somebody had already deleted most of the pictures.  I found his prior tax returns, his love letters, pictures of his very young girlfriend, and pretty much anything else you can think of. So yeah, that was my day.  I didn't want to see most of the stuff but unfortunately in order to sort it all out somebody had to.

The Weekend that Was

My weekends used to be full.  Well planned out, and normally busier than I would like.  I have gone from that to nothing.  I normally have very few things that I need to do, or events that I need to go to.  While once I was content, and even happy for this, I am now lonely and bored.  Good thing I have this hike to train for, otherwise I may not see anybody over the course of a weekend.  My people are back to being busy and scheduled, and I'm left on the outside looking in.   I don't want to busy myself just to be busy, I want to be busy doing things I love and enjoy.  Most people I know their social activities revolve around alcohol.  I really don't want to do that either.  I need to expand my circle of friends and people to do things with.  Dating is filling up some of that, but man how I wish that Daniela could have been the person I thought she was, instead of the person who she turned into being.  My fault, I ignored ...

Cuba Life

Best line I've heard all week, "Things in Cuba are heavy, you need to leave them at the airport on your way out."  This is the statement that pretty much sums up how the ex-pats look at have girlfriends down here, and wives back home.  So basically I was told this so that in case I ever run into them in Canada with their wives, I don't find it awkward. Also down here young doesn't mean a thing.  These older guys are late 40's to late 60's and they are all dating women who are younger than 25.  Some of them have been dating these women since the girls were 20.  I don't know about you, but I find that troubling.  I guess the legal age down here is 16 and the way they look at it, that's ok.  The funny thing is that there are two of us here that are much younger.  Me at 32 and another guy at 30.  We both find this troubling.  The 30yr old has been here for 2 years in January and hasn't had a girlfriend since he has been here.  He does...
