We are now in Camaguey, a very artistic community and the third largest city in Cuba. Each region is unique and we are really enjoying the quaint cities. It is difficult to imagine how Cuba has been able to stay in a time warp for so long.
It continues to be a challenge touring with a group. It is my issue because of my fast pace nature, although we have one person that continues to be a problem for everyone. It is amazing how negative some people can be. I believe it is my karma to learn how to be patient with others, so I am taking it on as a learning experience.
I really have suffered from sunburn, which is really unusual for me. I did not use sunblock on my body and sunbathed after my snorkeling adventure in Trinidad. I am paying the price. Also, my cut on my leg is not healing and I am not sure what else to do, other than go to the pharmacy. I can´t believe we were staying with a doctor in Trinidad and I never asked him. I will continue to see if I can heal it myself.
I finished all the books on my kindle and let Eric use it to read. That was a mistake!!! He can´t put the kindle down because he is reading a Ken Follet book. He is already asking how to buy a kindle. That will teach me a lesson.
We are half way through our trip and are really enjoying Cuba. The people are wonderful. The food is so so, except for the lobster and catfish.
I am definitely feeling tired and am looking forward to being in my own house and not out of a suitcase, although I am only home for 6 weeks.
Namaste, Paula

About Me
- Paula Unplugged after 60
- I was the middle child of first born American parents of Italian descent. As expected in my generation, I married at 19 and had two children by the age of 23. I guess you can say I grew about with my children (as they remind me on a continual basis). I start college when we moved to Ca.. I received a BA and MSA and started my 29 year career in technology. My first job was with Hewlett Packard and from there I had numerous positions in technology companies until I co-founded my first company in 1996. Along the way I divorced, remarried, and became a grandmother (which is the real joy in my life, since I get to make up for all the wrongs I did as a young mother). As you can see my life was simple, non adventurous and I was always looking for adventure. After 60 I told myself that the second half of my life would be filled with adventure. Knowing that I am on a tight budget, I had to look at how I could fulfill my lifetime dream in a new and different way. I did not want to be saddled with rules and norms. This brings me to Paula Unplugged After 60.
