Lennon Park



This is a pretty cool place. It was an adventure getting to the right place. The cab driver assured us he knew where to take us and we ended up in a dump of a park, Lenin Park, really not well kept. After more explaining and calming him down we got the driver to understand the name of the place and the address. Se we went there, fortunately he was noble enough not to charge us for the boondoggle run. The statue of John L is maybe a tad larger than life size. There is an elderly attendant that stands there and holds the glasses. He puts them on when a person comes up to the statue. Apparently the glasses were regularly stolen and workers are easy to come by in Cuba. The park is well kept by Cuban standards. Suppose that we all got along, Imagine that. Wouldn't life be wonderful.
