Arrival in Havana

After a 45 minute flight, we arrived in a small, but crowded Havana airport.  Luggage collection took awhile, but we finally got everyone together.  With one person cancelling due to illness, we have a delegation of 13, nine of which are lawyers and one paralegal and one psychologist.

Our first stop was  the main square in Havana, which was bordered by this building with an outline picture of Che.




We just walked around the square a bit - it was about 90 degrees, but not overly humid.



The center of the square was this monument.  The square is sort of Havana's "Red Square" and used for parades and celebrations.







We then had lunch and, being rather tired after a 4:30 a.m. meeting time this morning, went to the hotel for an afternoon of relaxation.  Tomorrow being Sunday will be mostly a day for touring with the professional meetings starting on Monday.
