065 Cycle Touring Cuba

(Leana) #1

Moron – San Jose del Largo - 60 km app
By morning, I turned my bike in the direction of Havana, and while a
few days remained on my visa, the time had come to move in the
direction of the capital. I read that San Jose had a spa and I went in
search of these magical baths.


The mild tailwind made it pleasurable cycling and an early arrival at
San Jose del Largo. The spa was slightly dilapidated, as most of these
types of places were. Still, I spent a good hour in the bath, which
consisted of a huge undercover pool. The pool was right over the
spring's eye and had a sandy bottom where one could see the water
bubbling up from a tiny volcano.


Afterwards, I met two cyclists from Canada. They had been travelling
for a year and planned on cycling at least one more. We had a meal
together and shared a bottle of wine, compliments of my hosts.
